Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: UDP-galactose transmembrane transporter activity; UDP-glucuronic acid transmembrane transporter activity; antiporter activity; UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transmembrane transporter activity; UDP-glucose transmembrane transporter activity; UDP-xylose transmembrane transporter activity.
There is experimental evidence for 11 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: nitrogen compound transport; localization; multicellular organismal development; pyrimidine nucleotide-sugar transport; system development; transmembrane transport; embryonic pattern specification; sensory organ development; regionalization; pattern specification process; organic substance transport.
21 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 16 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; adult segment; organ system; external compound sense organ; postalar bristle; acellular anatomical structure; thoracic segment; peripheral nervous system; integumentary plate; extended germ band embryo.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Domain of unknown function DUF250.
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 00-12 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages.
This gene is annotated by FlyBase as a dicistronic gene, meaning that some or all of its transcripts encode two or more polypeptide-coding open reading frames (ORFs) , with each ORF assigned to a different gene.
The distribution of RNA-Seq coverage data amongst the different encoded genes cannot be determined.
