Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: succinate-CoA ligase (GDP-forming) activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: neurogenesis.
4 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: trichogen cell.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: ATP-citrate lyase/succinyl-CoA ligase; ATP-citrate lyase/succinyl-CoA ligase, active site; CoA-binding; NAD(P)-binding domain; Succinyl-CoA ligase, alpha subunit; Succinyl-CoA synthetase-like.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of high expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
