Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: serine C-palmitoyltransferase activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: biosynthetic process.
6 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: trichogen cell.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Aminotransferase, class I/classII; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase, major domain; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase, major region, subdomain 1; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transferase, major region, subdomain 2.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages.
