Gene Description

CG6836 is a seven-pass OST-alpha-family membrane protein with a probable transport role. Its topology and evolutionary placement support membrane integration and a likely cell-surface location. The transported organic solute, partner requirements and physiological role in Drosophila remain unresolved; mammalian bile-acid transport specificity cannot be assumed.

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0005886 plasma membrane
IEA
GO_REF:0000044
ACCEPT
Summary: Plasma-membrane residence is a reasonable OST-alpha ortholog inference.
Reason: The seven-pass target topology and curated OST-alpha placement support a cell-surface transporter architecture. The location is inferred from homologs rather than measured in fly, and does not identify a bile-acid substrate.

FT TRANSMEM 45..65
file:DROME/CG6836/CG6836-uniprot.txt
Belongs to the OST-alpha family. {ECO:0000305}.
GO:0016020 membrane
IEA
GO_REF:0000117
ACCEPT
Summary: Multiple membrane-spanning helices establish membrane integration.
Reason: The exact 328-residue product carries seven independently predicted transmembrane segments, consistent with its OST-alpha-family structure. This broad location does not require a mammalian substrate assignment.
