High impact information on Eip63E

  • The 71-nt Drosophila U7 snRNA is encoded by a single gene that is embedded in the direct orientation in an intron of the Eip63E gene [1].
  • L63 proteins are widely distributed among late larval and prepupal tissues and are unlikely to be involved in cell cycle functions [2].
  • PIF-1A and PIF-1B (the L63 interactor) predicted proteins are expressed in vivo, and show a distinct expression profile during development [3].
  • L63 encodes a CDK-like protein homologous to the mammalian PFTAIRE [3].
  • In addition, we describe two novel Drosophila proteins, PIF-1 and PIF-2 (for PFTAIRE Interacting Factor-1 and -2), identified in a two-hybrid screen for their ability to interact with the amino-terminal region of L63 [3].
 

Other interactions of Eip63E

  • The role of this interaction remains to be demonstrated, but our data suggest that PIF-1B might serve as a regulator of L63 [3].
  • We showed previously that L63 provides a CDK-related function critical to development (Dev. Biol. 221 (2000) 23) [3].
