grh | Protein grainyhead; Grainy head (grh) encodes the founding member of a highly conserved family of transcription factors essential for embryonic development. It is both a transcriptional activator and repressor, responsible for the proper expression of many genes primarily involved in epithelial cell fate, barrier formation, wound healing, tube morphogenesis and proliferation of larval neuroblasts; Belongs to the grh/CP2 family. Grainyhead subfamily. (1333 aa) | ||||
Gr93a | Gustatory receptor for bitter taste 93a; Gustatory receptor required for response to the bitter in taste neurons. Gr93a cells respond to bitter compounds such as caffeine. Flies avoid bitter substances, suggesting that Gr93a neuron activity is sufficient to mediate avoidance behavior. Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily. Gustatory receptor (GR) family. Gr93a subfamily. (419 aa) |
