Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: odorant binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: sensory perception of smell.
2 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Insect pheromone/odorant binding protein PhBP; Pheromone/general odorant binding protein, PBP/GOBP; Pheromone/general odorant binding protein, PBP/GOBP, domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed during early larval stages, during early pupal stages.
