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: biotin-[propionyl-CoA-carboxylase (ATP-hydrolyzing)] ligase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: response to heat.
7 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Biotin protein ligase, C-terminal; Biotin--acetyl-CoA-carboxylase ligase; Biotin/lipoate A/B protein ligase.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
