Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: chitin binding; structural constituent of peritrophic membrane. An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: chitin metabolic process. 3 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: trichogen cell; cuticle. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Chitin binding domain. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of very low expression. Peak expression observed within 12-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period. . |
