The biological processes in which it is involved are not known.
10 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Carboxylesterase type B, active site; Carboxylesterase, type B.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout the larval period, in adult male stages.
