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: sterol binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: mesoderm development.
3 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
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 within 12-18 embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during late pupal stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
