Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
It is reported to have molecular function: taste receptor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: response to carbon dioxide; determination of adult lifespan; detection of carbon dioxide.
6 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: abdominal 1 desC neuron.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: 7TM chemoreceptor.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of low expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed during early pupal stages.
