Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: scavenger receptor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: phagocytosis triggered by activation of immune response cell surface activating receptor; apoptosis; phagocytosis; autophagic cell death; salivary gland cell autophagic cell death.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: embryonic/larval glial cell; presumptive embryonic/larval central nervous system.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: CD36 antigen.
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 hour embryonic stages, during late larval stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
