The Drosophila melanogaster septin gene Sep2 has a redundant function with the retrogene Sep5 in imaginal cell proliferation but is essential for oogenesis.

Genome - 1 Dec 2013

O'Neill Ryan S, Clark Denise V

Abstract excerpt

Septins are cytoskeletal proteins that form hetero-oligomeric complexes and function in many biological processes, including cytokinesis. Drosophila melanogaster has five septin genes. Sep5, which is the most recently evolved septin gene in Drosophila, is a retrogene copy of Sep2. Sep5 mutants ap...
