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.
It is reported to have molecular function: serine-type endopeptidase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: innate immune response; defense response to Gram-positive bacterium; defense response; positive regulation of Toll signaling pathway.
6 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Disulphide knot CLIP; Peptidase S1/S6, chymotrypsin/Hap; Peptidase S1/S6, chymotrypsin/Hap, active site; Peptidase S1A, chymotrypsin-type; Peptidase cysteine/serine, trypsin-like; Proteinase, regulatory CLIP domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed during early pupal stages.
