The gene Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\Pepck (CG17725, FBgn0003067). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) activity. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to be involved in the biological process: gluconeogenesis. 4 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, C-terminal; Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, GTP-utilising; Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, GTP-utilising, conserved site; Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, N-terminal. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Many larval and adult organs/tissues expressed at high levels. Expression at high levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult head, adult eye, larval midgut, larval/adult hindgut, larval/adult Malpighian tubules, adult heart, larval/adult fat body, larval salivary gland, larval trachea, adult spermathecae, larval/adult carcass. Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult thoracico-abdominal ganglion, adult crop, adult midgut, adult male reproductive system. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1633599_a_at completely aligns to an exonic region common to each of the 2 FlyBase-annotated transcript isoforms of Pepck. Gene sequence location is 2R:14424272..14426920.
