The gene Dorsal-related immunity factor is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol DmelDif (CG6794, FBgn0011274). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 polypeptides (2 unique). Gene sequence location is 2L:17413248..17433161. Its molecular function is described by 6 unique terms, many of which group under: DNA-binding transcription factor activity; binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; molecular function regulator; transcription regulator activity. It is involved in the biological process described with 16 unique terms, many of which group under: signaling; response to organic substance; positive regulation of biosynthetic process; neuron development; defense response to bacterium. 40 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: eo-type sensillum; head mesoderm derived embryonic hemocyte; embryonic hemocyte; lamellocyte; adult thoracic sensillum. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: phenotype; visible; fertile; increased mortality. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of extremely low expression. Peak expression observed within 12-24 hour embryonic stages, during early pupal stages.
