Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: hydroxymethylbilane synthase activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: peptidyl-pyrromethane cofactor linkage; tetrapyrrole biosynthetic process.
19 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Porphobilinogen deaminase, C-terminal domain; Porphobilinogen deaminase, N-terminal; Porphobilinogen deaminase, dipyrromethane cofactor binding site; Tetrapyrrole biosynthesis, hydroxymethylbilane synthase.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 and 12-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, during late pupal stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
