High impact information on trr

  • In utero rearrangements in the trithorax-related oncogene in infant leukaemias [1].
  • However, preliminary genetic analysis of a trr null allele suggests that TRR protein may not be involved in regulation of homeotic genes (i.e. not a member of the trithorax or Polycomb groups) or in position effect variegation [2].
  • Molecular genetic analysis of the Drosophila trithorax-related gene which encodes a novel SET domain protein [2].
  • Mutations in trr interact in eye development with EcR, and EcR and TRR can be co-immunoprecipitated on ecdysone treatment [3].
  • Here we report that TRR is a histone methyltransferases capable of trimethylating lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3-K4). trr acts upstream of hedgehog (hh) in progression of the morphogenetic furrow, and is required for retinal differentiation [3].
