opa | Pair-rule protein odd-paired; Transcription factor essential for parasegmental subdivision of the embryo. It is involved in the activation of wingless (wg) in odd parasegments. It is also required for the timely activation of wg in the remaining parasegments and for the timely activation of engrailed (en) in all parasegments; Belongs to the GLI C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.

sls | Titin; Key component in the assembly and functioning of adult and embryonic striated muscles and muscle tendons. By providing connections at the level of individual microfilaments, it contributes to the fine balance of forces between the two halves of the sarcomere. The size and extensibility of the cross-links are the main determinants of sarcomere extensibility properties of muscle. In non-muscle cells, seems to play a role in chromosome condensation and chromosome segregation during mitosis. Might link the lamina network to chromatin or nuclear actin, or both during interphase.
