Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
It is reported to have molecular function: dopamine beta-monooxygenase activity.
There is experimental evidence for 13 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: behavioral interaction between organisms; multicellular organismal process; biological regulation; multi-organism process; multicellular organismal reproductive process; locomotory behavior; mating; learning or memory; regulation of biological process; aggressive behavior.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: larva.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase, N-terminal; Copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase, histidine-cluster-1 conserved site; Copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase-like, C-terminal; DOMON domain; Dopamine-beta-monooxygenase; PHM/PNGase F-fold domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages.
