Sequences are listed by the family in which they are included (or stated as orphan genes), their chromosomal localization (position on the polytene chromosomes map as found in Flybase), their accession number and their characterization status (1, sequence only; 2, expression pattern known; 3, preliminary functional data exist; 4, exhaustive characterization has been done).
