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.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: m7G(5')pppN diphosphatase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process; regulation of cytoplasmic mRNA processing body assembly; gene silencing by miRNA; deadenylation-dependent decapping of nuclear-transcribed mRNA.
9 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 5 annotated transcripts and 5 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: NUDIX hydrolase domain; NUDIX hydrolase domain-like; NUDIX hydrolase, conserved site; mRNA decapping protein 2, Box A.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
