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) | ||||
CycA | G2/mitotic-specific cyclin-A; Cyclin A (CycA) encodes a protein that binds to the product of Cdk1, thereby promoting Cdk1's protein kinase activity. The CycA-Cdk1 complex controls important aspects of progression through the cell cycle, including entry into mitosis. During the G2 phase, this complex is important for prevention of premature DNA re-replication. During mitosis and G1, the product of CycA is rapidly degraded (involving APC/C and the proteasome), resulting in inactivation of Cdk1 protein kinase activity. (491 aa) |
