Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. It is reported to have molecular function: cation channel activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: larval feeding behavior; smooth muscle contraction; sperm competition; sperm motility; sperm storage; spermatogenesis. 17 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: flagellum; spermatozoon. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: Polycystin cation channel, PKD1/PKD2. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of no expression detected. Peak expression observed during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult male stages. . |
