Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
It is reported to have molecular function: sodium:hydrogen antiporter activity.
It is reported to be involved in the biological process: regulation of pH.
19 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: eye; embryonic/larval digestive system; embryonic/larval fat body; eye photoreceptor cell; ommatidium.
It has 9 annotated transcripts and 9 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Cation/H+ exchanger; Cation/H+ exchanger, CPA1 family; Na+/H+ exchanger; Na+/H+ exchanger, isoforms 3/9.
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 00-12 and 18-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during early pupal stages, in adult male stages.
