Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: superoxide dismutase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: determination of adult lifespan; regulation of metabolic process.
17 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: adult heart.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Manganese/iron superoxide dismutase; Manganese/iron superoxide dismutase, C-terminal; Manganese/iron superoxide dismutase, N-terminal; Manganese/iron superoxide dismutase, binding site.
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 within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, during late pupal stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
