Gene Group (FlyBase)

ANTENNAL IONOTROPIC CO-RECEPTORS -: Ionotropic Receptors (IR) co-receptors are part of the IR family. They are broadly, but selectively, expressed in antennal sensory neurons in Drosophila. Some antenneal IRs only form functional odor-responsive ion channels as a heteromeric complex with an IR co-receptor. (Adapted from FBrf0222310).

Model Confidence:

Very high (pLDDT > 90)
Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

Expression Summary Ribbons

Colored tiles in ribbon indicate that the Fly Cell Atlas project found the gene expressed in that cell type. Darker colors mean that more cells of that cell type express the gene:

low

high

Colorless tiles indicate that there is no scRNAseq data for the gene in that cell type.

Colored tiles in ribbon indicate that expression data (RNA and/or protein) has been curated by FlyBase for that anatomical location. Colorless tiles indicate that there is no curated data for that location.

Colored tiles in the ribbon indicate the average RNA expression level of the gene at the indicated stages:

low

high
