mago | Protein mago nashi; Core component of the splicing-dependent multiprotein exon junction complex (EJC) deposited at splice junctions on mRNAs. Involved in exon definition of genes containing long introns, including the rolled/MAPK gene. The mago-tsu heterodimer interacts with the EJC key regulator Pym leading to EJC disassembly in the cytoplasm. Has a role in oskar mRNA localization to the posterior pole of the developing oocyte, and may also be involved in polarization of the oocyte microtubule cytoskeleton. (147 aa) | ||||
Prm | Paramyosin, long form; Paramyosin (Prm) encodes a muscle protein found only in invertebrates. It dimerizes into a coiled-coil that occupies the interior of the thick filament. Its role is thought to be structural, although it can be phosphorylated and this is important for muscle function. (879 aa) |
