Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sterol binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: sterol transport; ecdysteroid biosynthetic process. 9 alleles are reported. The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: mesothoracic tergum. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Immunoglobulin E-set; MD-2-related lipid-recognition. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of very low expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout the pupal period. . |
