Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: asparagine-tRNA ligase activity.
It is reported to be involved in the biological process: asparaginyl-tRNA aminoacylation.
53 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: adult thorax; adult head; metathoracic bristle; scutellar bristle; wing; mesothoracic bristle.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, class II; Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, class II (D/K/N); Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, class II (D/K/N)-like; Asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIb; Aspartyl/Asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase, class IIb; Nucleic acid binding, OB-fold, tRNA/helicase-type; Nucleic acid-binding, OB-fold; Nucleic acid-binding, OB-fold-like.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderately high expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
