Intestinal gene expression in different physiological conditions There is not condition-dependent expression data available for this gene.
Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: extracellular-glutamate-gated ion channel activity.
The biological processes in which it is involved are not known.
One allele is reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Ionotropic glutamate receptor.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very low expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult male stages.
