Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: alanine-tRNA ligase activity.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to be involved in the biological process: alanyl-tRNA aminoacylation.
3 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: trichogen cell.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Alanyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIc; Alanyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIc, N-terminal; Alanyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIc, anti-codon-binding domain; Alanyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIc, core domain; Alanyl-tRNA synthetase, eukaryota/bacteria; Threonyl/alanyl tRNA synthetase, SAD; Threonyl/alanyl tRNA synthetase, class II-like, putative editing domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
