Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: neuropeptide hormone activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: body fluid secretion.
4 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Corticotropin-releasing factor conserved site; Corticotropin-releasing factor, CRF.
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, in adult male stages.
