Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: neuropeptide hormone activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: larval feeding behavior; regulation of trehalose metabolic process; determination of adult lifespan; positive regulation of cell size; positive regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway; regulation of glucose metabolic process; positive regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade; multicellular organism growth; adult feeding behavior; positive regulation of multicellular organism growth.
13 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: embryonic/larval fat body.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult male stages.
