Intestinal gene expression in different physiological conditions There is not condition-dependent expression data available for this gene.
Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: N-acylneuraminate cytidylyltransferase activity.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to be involved in the biological process: CMP-N-acetylneuraminate biosynthetic process.
3 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Acylneuraminate cytidylyltransferase.
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 within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, during late pupal stages, in adult male stages.
