Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it has the molecular function: serine-type endopeptidase activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: proteolysis.
10 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: aCC neuron; commissure; ventral acute muscle; peripheral nervous system; longitudinal connective; lateral oblique muscle; pCC neuron; lateral transverse muscle; ventral longitudinal muscle.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Peptidase S1/S6, chymotrypsin/Hap; Peptidase S1/S6, chymotrypsin/Hap, active site; Peptidase S1A, chymotrypsin-type; Peptidase cysteine/serine, trypsin-like.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 12-18 embryonic stages, during early larval stages, during late pupal stages.
