Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
It is reported to have molecular function: GABA-A receptor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: response to mechanical stimulus; negative regulation of synaptic transmission; regulation of olfactory learning; regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle; sleep.
33 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: aCC neuron; RP2 neuron; U neuron; metathoracic intersegmental nerve; prothoracic intersegmental nerve; intersegmental nerve; mesothoracic intersegmental nerve; VUM neuron; abdominal intersegmental nerve.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Gamma-aminobutyric acid A receptor; Gamma-aminobutyric-acid A receptor, beta subunit; Neurotransmitter-gated ion-channel; Neurotransmitter-gated ion-channel ligand-binding; Neurotransmitter-gated ion-channel transmembrane domain; Neurotransmitter-gated ion-channel, conserved site.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed during early larval stages.
