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) | ||||
plu | DNA replication inhibitor plutonium; Plutonium (plu) encodes a protein that binds to and activates the kinase encoded by png. plu mutants are female sterile, and they result in embryos with giant nuclei due to failure to translate CycB mRNA resulting in DNA replication in the absence of mitosis.
