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) | ||||
Rbp6 | RNA-binding protein 6 (Rbp6) encodes a paralog of the RNA-binding protein encoded by msi. In contrast to msi, Rbp6 mutants are viable and fertile, with only a slight delay in eclosion. The product of Rbp6 may have roles in response to fungal infection and aggressive behavior. (499 aa) |
