The gene chiffon is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelchif (CG5813, FBgn0000307). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 polypeptides (3 unique). Gene sequence location is 2L:16342430..16352628. Its molecular function is described by: protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity; zinc ion binding; nucleic acid binding; protein kinase activator activity. It is involved in the biological process described with 9 unique terms, many of which group under: regulation of cellular metabolic process; positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; cellular homeostasis; DNA-dependent DNA replication; regulation of protein modification process. 33 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: cellular anatomical entity; adult optic lobe; cell projection; adult external mesothorax; head segment. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: short lived; behavior defective; phenotype; sterile. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, in adult female stages.
