Summary
Predicted to enable alkaline phosphatase activity. Involved in epithelial fluid transport; multicellular organism reproduction; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in cell surface and extracellular space. Is expressed in Malpighian tubule; adult head; and large field neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adult hypophosphatasia; childhood hypophosphatasia; hypophosphatasia; infantile hypophosphatasia; and inflammatory bowel disease. Orthologous to several human genes including ALPL (alkaline phosphatase, biomineralization associated); ALPG (alkaline phosphatase, germ cell); and ALPI (alkaline phosphatase, intestinal).
