Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: disulfide oxidoreductase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: cell redox homeostasis; determination of adult lifespan; response to DNA damage stimulus; response to oxidative stress.
19 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Thioredoxin; Thioredoxin domain; Thioredoxin, conserved site; Thioredoxin-like fold.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate 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.
