The CPEB protein Orb2 has multiple functions during spermatogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster.

PLoS genetics - 1 Jan 2012

Xu Shuwa, Hafer Nathaniel, Agunwamba Blessing, Schedl Paul

Abstract excerpt

Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element Binding (CPEB) proteins are translational regulators that can either activate or repress translation depending on the target mRNA and the specific biological context. There are two CPEB subfamilies and most animals have one or more genes from each. Drosophila has a single CPEB gene, orb and orb2, from each subfamily. orb expression is only detected at high levels in the...
