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: amino acid transmembrane transporter activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: chemosensory behavior; taurine transport; glutamine transport; glutamate secretion; L-glutamate transport; male courtship behavior.
9 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: embryonic/larval neuromuscular junction.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Amino acid permease domain; Amino acid/polyamine transporter I.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult female stages.
