Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: carbohydrate metabolic process.
5 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Acetylhexosaminidase, subunit a/b; Glycoside hydrolase, family 20; Glycoside hydrolase, family 20, catalytic core; Glycoside hydrolase, subgroup, catalytic core; Glycoside hydrolase, superfamily.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period.
