Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding; hedgehog receptor activity; lipoprotein particle receptor activity.
There is experimental evidence for 12 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; biological regulation; regulation of biological process; organ development; organ morphogenesis; post-embryonic organ morphogenesis; cellular component organization or biogenesis; multicellular organismal reproductive process; post-embryonic appendage morphogenesis; chemical homeostasis; regulation of response to stimulus; regulation of protein transport; sensory organ development; determination of imaginal disc primordium; multicellular organism reproduction.
179 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 86 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; adult segment; adult mesothoracic segment; abdominal ventral denticle belt; organ system; nervous system; imaginal precursor; presumptive embryonic/larval nervous system; embryonic/larval neuron; commissure.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Patched; Sterol-sensing domain; Transmembrane receptor, patched.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
