Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: chloride channel activity; volume-sensitive chloride channel activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: chloride transport; cell volume homeostasis.
15 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Bestrophin; Bestrophin/UPF0187.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult female stages.
