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: retinol binding; lipid transporter activity; receptor binding; microtubule binding; heme binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: smoothened signaling pathway; lipid transport; Wnt receptor signaling pathway.
15 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: wing disc; lipid droplet; embryonic/larval fat body.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Armadillo-like helical; Lipid transport protein, N-terminal; Lipid transport protein, beta-sheet shell; Lipid transport, open beta-sheet; Vitellinogen, beta-sheet N-terminal; Vitellinogen, open beta-sheet; Vitellinogen, open beta-sheet, subdomain 1; Vitellinogen, open beta-sheet, subdomain 2; Vitellinogen, superhelical; von Willebrand factor, type D domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-18 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period.
