JIL-1 | Chromosomal serine/threonine-protein kinase JIL-1; Phosphorylates 'Ser-10' of histone H3. May regulate gene expression by establishing or maintaining the structure of more open chromatin regions. Also required for normal polytene chromosome structure, for oogenesis and for viability throughout development. Regulates the structure of polytene chromosomes in salivary glands. May phosphorylate 'Ser-1' of histone H2A. (1207 aa) | ||||
Topors | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Topors; Functions as a ubiquitin-protein E3 ligase. Negatively regulates the transcriptional repressor h/hairy by promoting its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Also directs the nuclear organization of the gypsy chromatin insulator. Chromatin insulators are regulatory elements which establish independent domains of transcriptional activity within eukaryotic genomes. Insulators have two defining properties; they can block the communication between an enhancer and a promoter when placed between them, and can also buffer transgenes from position effec [...] (1038 aa) |
