Su(var)3-3 | Possible lysine-specific histone demethylase 1; Probable histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation, thereby acting as a corepressor. Required for heterochromatic gene silencing. Acts by oxidizing the substrate by FAD to generate the corresponding imine that is subsequently hydrolyzed. Demethylates both mono- and tri-methylated 'Lys-4' of histone H3. May also demethylate 'Lys-9' of histone H3, Plays a role in the repression of neuronal genes; Belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. (890 aa) | ||||
rut | Ca(2+)/calmodulin-responsive adenylate cyclase; Rutabaga (rut) encodes a membrane-bound Ca[2+]/calmodulin-activated adenylyl cyclase that is responsible for synthesis of cAMP. It plays a key role in regulating behavioral, neuroanatomical, and electrophysiological plasticity. (2248 aa) |
