Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: neurotransmitter transporter activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: synaptic transmission, glutamatergic. 57 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: neuromuscular junction; neuropil; embryonic/larval neuromuscular junction; antennal lobe; synaptic vesicle. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Major facilitator superfamily; Major facilitator superfamily domain; Major facilitator superfamily domain, general substrate transporter. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of extremely low expression. Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages. . |
