Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: carbonate dehydratase activity.
The biological processes in which it is involved are not known.
3 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Carbonic anhydrase, alpha-class; Carbonic anhydrase, alpha-class, catalytic domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages.
