mof | Males-absent on the first protein; Histone acetyltransferase that plays a direct role in the specific histone acetylation associated with dosage compensation as part of the MSL complex. Dosage compensation insures that males with a single X chromosome have the same amount of most X-linked gene products as females with two X chromosomes. May be directly involved in the acetylation of histone 4 at 'Lys-16' on the X chromosome of males where it is recruited by the MSL complex. As part of the NSL complex may associate with promoters of X chromosomal as well as autosomal genes and positivel [...] (827 aa) | ||||
ham | Transcription factor hamlet; Transcription factor that plays a crucial role in external sensory organ (ESO) that elaborates from a single precursor cell (ESOP cell). Mediates the differentiation of lineage branch that generates the internal 'ES' and 'th' cells (external sensory neuron and thecogen cells, respectively) from the IIIB cell. Its absence leads to re- specification of IIIB daughter cells into external tormagen cells (tr cells), or internal multidendritic neurons (MD cells). One of its role in the development of the ESO lineage is to modulate the activity of Notch and PAX2 signals. (990 aa) |
