Predicted to enable monooxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Expressed in excretory duct cell; excretory socket cell; hypodermal cell; intestine; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension and trimethylaminuria. Is an ortholog of several human genes including FMO2 (flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 2); FMO3 (flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 3); and FMO4 (flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 4).
Sequence connection from [Barstead RJ] [040902 ck1]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
