Name
morgana
Synonyms
  • CG6198
  • CHORD
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including centrosome duplication; regulation of dendrite development; and regulation of microtubule cytoskeleton organization. Located in mitotic spindle microtubule; nucleus; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in organism. Orthologous to several human genes including CHORDC1 (cysteine and histidine rich domain containing 1).
FB Description
morgana (mora) encodes an evolutionarily conserved co-chaperone of the product of Hsp83 that controls neuronal cell growth in the context of dendrite remodeling. Dendritic growth and branching are controlled by at least partly separate mechanisms. The Insulin/IGF signaling (IIS)/TORC1 pathways control both growth and branching to avert underdevelopment, whereas the products of mora and rictor realize proportional scaling of the entire arbor.
