    Summary
    Predicted to enable spermidine synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in spermidine biosynthetic process. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; embryonic/larval fat body; embryonic/larval midgut; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; and posterior endoderm. Orthologous to human SRM (spermidine synthase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
