Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: DNA dealkylation involved in DNA repair.
3 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase, DNA binding; Methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase, active site; Winged helix-turn-helix transcription repressor DNA-binding.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
