Protein Function (UniProtKB)

Adapter protein that plays a central role in localization of transcripts in the oocyte and in young embryos (PubMed:9118812). Maintains RNA targets in a repressed state by promoting their deadenylation and protects deadenylated mRNAs from further degradation (PubMed:21937713). Binds to and recruits eIF-4E to the 3'-UTR of some mRNA targets which prevents interaction between eIF4E1 and eIF4G (PubMed:14685270, PubMed:15465908, PubMed:21081899). This may contribute to translational repression but does not appear to be necessary for it to occur (PubMed:21081899). Can promote translational repression independently of deadenylation and eIF4E1 binding (PubMed:21937713). Required for correct localization of eIF4E1 in the developing oocyte (PubMed:15465908). Required for translational repression of oskar (osk) mRNA (PubMed:14691132, PubMed:14723848). Also required for the translational repression of nanos (nos) mRNA (PubMed:21081899). Promotes the accumulation of the germ plasm components osk, vas and stau at the posterior pole of the oocyte and is required for germ cell development (PubMed:22454519, PubMed:17277377). Represses orb positive autoregulatory activity which prevents premature activation of orb and ensures its accumulation specifically in the developing oocyte (PubMed:22164257). In 0-1 hour embryos, forms a complex with me31B, cup, tral and pAbp which binds to various mRNAs including maternal mRNAs, and downregulates their expression during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (PubMed:28875934).

(UniProt, Q9VMA3)

Phenotypic Description (Red Book; Lindsley and Zimm 1992)

cup: cup (T. Schupbach)

Female-sterile; homozygous females show abnormalities in late oogenesis. Follicle cells do not migrate centripetally between nurse cells and oocyte. They do synthetize a chorion which remains open ended (like a chalice, or cup). Such eggs are usually not laid and remain unfertilized.

Subunit Structure (UniProtKB)

Component of the osk RNP complex, which is composed of at least exu, yps, aret/bruno, cup, and the mRNA of osk (PubMed:10662770). Interacts with the decapping activators me31B and tral (PubMed:21937713). Component of the nos RNP complex, which is composed of at least smg, cup, tral, me31B, the CCR4-NOT complex members Rga/NOT2 and Caf1, and the mRNA of nos (PubMed:21081899). Interacts with btz (PubMed:14691132, PubMed:14723848). Recruited to the 3'-UTR of nos and osk mRNAs by smg and btz, respectively (PubMed:14685270, PubMed:14691132). Forms a ribonucleoprotein complex (RNP) containing at least me31B, eIF4E1, cup, tral and pAbp; this interaction is required for the translational silencing of maternal mRNAs during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (PubMed:28875934). No interaction was detected with pAbp in 1-5 hour embryos (PubMed:28875934). Interacts with osk and vas (PubMed:22454519). Interacts with Pop2, twin/CCR4, Rga, Not3 and Not1 which are all core components of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex; interaction with the complex is required for cup deadenylation activity (PubMed:21937713). Interacts with nos (PubMed:11060247). Interacts with smg (PubMed:14685270). Interacts with eIF4E1; the interaction promotes retention of cup in the cytoplasm (PubMed:14723848, PubMed:14685270, PubMed:15465908, PubMed:21937713). Interacts with orb; the interaction represses the orb positive autoregulatory loop (PubMed:22164257). Interacts with Nup154 (PubMed:17277377).

Additional Descriptive Data

cup protein colocalizes with Hsp83 protein in the cytoplasm of germline stem cells in region 1, is nearly absent in the anterior of region 2 (cystoblast cleavage stage), but rises to high levels in the posterior part of region 2, and in the maturing germline cysts of region 3. cup protein is accumulates at the posterior cytoplasm of oocytes up to oogenesis stage 8; around nurse cell nuclei in early egg chambers, and in nurse cell cytoplasm.

(Pisa et al., 2009)

cup protein is uniform and abundant in the cytoplasm of all cleavage stage embryos up through stage 9. In the ovary, cup protein is found in the cytoplasm of all germ-line cells. It accumulates preferentially in the future oocyte as early as germarium stage 2a. It continues to be selectively enriched in the oocyte until stage S8. During stage S9, the nurse cells and oocyte contain similar amounts of cup protein and by stage S10, it is localized preferentially in the nurse cells. Within the nurse cells, cup protein accumulates in large aggregates whose location varies as egg chambers develop.

(Keyes and Spradling, 1997)

180kD, 110kD and 45kD cup proteins are male-specific and are detected in male testis.

Additional comments

One or more of the processed transcripts for this gene contain(s) two non-overlapping open reading frames (ORFs). The non-overlapping ORFs are represented by CG34310 and cup.

(FlyBase Genome Annotators, 2012)

Other Comments

Cell-free assays indicate that the cup protein represses osk translation by binding to the eIF-4E cap-binding protein and recruiting the aret protein, thus preventing recruitment of the small ribosomal subunit.

(Chekulaeva et al., 2006)

cup functions in smg mediated translation repression.

(Nelson et al., 2004)

cup is a component of the osk RNP complex.

(Wilhelm et al., 2003)

cup is specifically required to localise btz to the oocyte. cup is required to localise eIF-4E to the posterior of the oocyte.

(Wilhelm et al., 2003)

cup has been cloned and characterised.

(Keyes and Spradling, 1997)

cup is continuously required for maintenance of nurse cell chromosome structure.

(Keyes and Spradling, 1995)

Mutaions at the cup locus cause defects in midoogenesis.
