rhi | RE36324p; Rhino (rhi) encodes an ovary-restricted heterochromatin protein 1 gene required for female fertility. It silences germline transposable elements by promoting transcription of the small RNAs encoded in Piwi-RNAclusters. (418 aa) | ||||
g | AP-3 complex subunit delta; Garnet (g) encodes a protein that forms the Adaptor protein 3 (AP-3) complex together with the other subunits encoded by or, rb and cm. These complexes select cargo for inclusion into vesicles for transport within the cell. AP-3 delivers protein cargo to a number of specialized organelles including pigment granules, late endosomes, lysosomes and synaptic vesicles. AP-3 genes were first found through defects in pigment granules that alter eye color. (1034 aa) |
