en | Segmentation polarity homeobox protein engrailed; Engrailed (en) encodes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that is essential for posterior compartment identity and for compartment boundary formation and maintenance. It positively regulates the hh gene and negatively regulates the Hedgehog targets encoded by ci, ptc and dpp. (552 aa) | ||||
dimm | Protein dimmed; Transcription factor that regulates neurosecretory (NS) cell function and neuroendocrine cell fate. Acts as a master regulator of common NS functions such as Phm expression and neuropeptide production. Plays a role as a regulator of peptide-containing large dense-core vesicle (LDCV) production and peptidergic cell differentiation. Controls transcription of FMRFamide in Tv neuronal cells and Fur1 in Ap-let cells (Tvb and dorsal apterous cells). Also required for up- regulation of Phm in Tv and Ap-let cells, and expression of three neuropeptide genes, Ms, FMRFamide and Lk [...] (390 aa) |
