hth | Homeobox protein homothorax; All isoforms are required for patterning of the embryonic cuticle. Acts with exd to delimit the eye field and prevent inappropriate eye development. Isoforms that carry the homeodomain are required for proper localization of chordotonal organs within the peripheral nervous system and antennal identity; required to activate antennal-specific genes, such as sal and to repress the leg-like expression of dac. Necessary for the nuclear localization of the essential HOX cofactor, extradenticle (exd). Both necessary and sufficient for inner photoreceptors to adopt [...] (487 aa) | ||||
milt | Trafficking kinesin-binding protein milt; Required for kinesin-mediated axonal transport of mitochondria to nerve terminals. The oocyte acquires the majority of its mitochondria by competitive bidirectional transport along microtubules mediated by the Milton adapter. Mitochondria enter the young oocyte en mass from interconnected germ cells to generate the large aggregate known as the Balbiani body. Milt and Miro form an essential protein complex that links Khc to mitochondria for light chain- independent, anterograde transport of mitochondria. (1256 aa) |
