The gene Gustatory receptor 28a is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\Gr28a (CG13787, FBgn0041247). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: taste receptor activity. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to be involved in the biological process: sensory perception of taste. 3 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: 7TM chemoreceptor. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very low expression to a trough of no expression detected. Peak expression observed during early larval stages, in adult male stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Little or no expression detected in any larval or adult organs/tissues. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1624034_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of Gr28a. Gene sequence location is 2L:7452520..7454212.
