Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it has the molecular function: odorant binding; thymidylate synthase (FAD) activity; flavin adenine dinucleotide binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: miRNA loading onto RISC involved in gene silencing by miRNA; negative regulation of gene silencing by RNA; siRNA loading onto RISC involved in chromatin silencing by small RNA.
11 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Pheromone/general odorant binding protein, PBP/GOBP; Thymidylate synthase complementing protein ThyX.
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.
