dMi-2, Pha, dMi2, PHD-containing ATPase, l(3)S085401
ATP dependent DNA helicase - Zinc finger, CHD family - associates with active chromatin and utilizes the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move nucleosomes along DNA - required for repression of cell type-specific genes and full activation of heat shock genes - regulates higher order chromatin structure of polytene chromosomes.

The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).
Mi-2 transcript is uniform in preblastoderm embryos.
Mi-2 protein is detected in the first 9 hours of embryonic development and then levels drop off sharply.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see JBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
New stable cell line derived from S2-unspecified : Cell lines with GFP or Tag:FLAG inserted into the ush or Mi-2 endogenous locus were created.
New stable cell line derived from S2-unspecified : The S2-Mi-2-GFP cell line was obtained from the Brehm lab.
DNA-protein interactions: genome-wide binding profile assayed for Mi-2 protein in S2 cells; GEO accession number GSE32404.
dsRNA has been made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene. RNAi of Mi-2 results in reduced arborization of ddaD and ddaE neurons, defects in muscle and defects in dendrite morphogenesis.
ATPase activity, nucleosome binding and nucleosome mobilization activities are all modulated by phosphorylation of Mi-2.
The Mi-2 chromodomains are DNA binding modules.
The Mi-2 chromodomains are important for ATP-dependent nucleosome mobilisation.
Isolated as a protein that interacts with hb protein in a yeast two-hybrid assay.
