Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: adenosylmethionine decarboxylase activity.
It is reported to be involved in the biological process: spermine biosynthetic process; spermidine biosynthetic process.
10 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: macrochaeta.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase; S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase subgroup; S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase, conserved site; S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase, core.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 and 18-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during early pupal stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
