trx | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase trithorax; Histone methyltransferase that trimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me3). H3 'Lys-9' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Functions in segment determination through interaction with genes of bithorax (BX-C) and antennapedia (ANT-C) complexes. Acts as an activator of BX-C. Involved in the very early regulation of homeotic genes expressed only in the posterior region of the embryo. (3726 aa) | ||||
pyr | Pyramus (pyr) encodes a Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and ligand for the FGF receptor encoded by htl. It regulates the development of somatic and visceral muscle in the mesoderm, cardioblasts and glial cells. Its roles include acting as a chemoattractant in directional cell migration, and regulating adhesion, differentiation, and cell survival. (766 aa) |
