Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: steroid dehydrogenase activity; 7-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity; acetoacetyl-CoA reductase activity; testosterone dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity; testosterone 17-beta-dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity; estradiol 17-beta-dehydrogenase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: acyl-CoA metabolic process; fatty acid metabolic process; estrogen metabolic process; androgen metabolic process; steroid metabolic process; ecdysone metabolic process.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: testis; spermatocyte.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Glucose/ribitol dehydrogenase; NAD(P)-binding domain; Short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase SDR; Short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase, conserved site.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderately high expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 and 12-18 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
