Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: sialyltransferase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: neuromuscular junction development; oligosaccharide metabolic process.
11 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: embryonic/larval neuromuscular junction.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Glycosyl transferase, family 29.
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 during early larval stages, during late pupal stages.
