Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: UTP:glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: metabolic process.
12 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase, subgroup.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed in adults stages of both sexes.
