[The e(y)3 gene codes for SAYP, an evolutionary conserved protein that is essential for ontogeny].
Genetika - 1 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
Enhancers of yellow (e(y)) is a group of genetically and functionally related genes. The proteins encoded by these genes are involved in transcription regulation. The e(y)3 gene under study codes for an ubiquitous nuclear protein, termed SAYP, which has homologs in various multicellular organisms. SAYP contains an AT-hook domain, two PHD domains, and a new evolutionarily conserved domain. SAYP mutants die during...
