Gene Snapshot
lodestar (lds) encodes a protein that belongs to the helicase-related family and is part of the spindle assembly checkpoint engaged in the maintenance of chromosome/genome stability. It is required to load cohesin complexes onto the chromosomes during the embryonic cleavage mitoses. Absence of lds leads to frequent chromosome loss and death of cells and embryos.

Phenotypic Description (Red Book; Lindsley and Zimm 1992)
lds: lodestar
Maternal. In nuclear cycles 9-10, multiple complex anaphase spindles share several centrosomes. Multiple groups of chromosomes are often directed to same pole. Elongated polyploid nuclei develop. Mitotic abnormalities in larval brain cells (Gatti).

Additional Descriptive Data
The lds protein is cytoplasmic at interphase, rapidly enters the nucleus early in prophase, is restricted to the region enclosed by the spindle envelope in metaphase and anaphase, and by telophase is contained entirely in the reforming nucleus.

            Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.

            Additional comments
            scaRNA:mgU2-41 is encoded in an intron of lds.
            (Graveley et al., 2011)
            'Note added in proof' in FBrf0080432 was in error; mus309, l(3)87Ae and lds are not, in fact, allelic.
            Other Comments
            Only double stranded DNA (dsDNA) effectively activates the lds ATPase. Single stranded DNA (ssDNA) not only fails to activate the ATPase, but suppresses the dsDNA-dependent ATPase. Interaction of lds with dsDNA is important to couple the ATPase with the transcript release activity. Although properties of the product suggest that it might have helicase activity DNA unwinding activity associated with lds is undetectable.
            (Xie and Price, 1998)
            Transcript release activity of lds requires ATP or dATP and NTPs do not support the activity.
            (Xie and Price, 1997)
            A 154kD lds protein has been purified. This factor causes the release of transcripts by RNA polymerase II in an ATP-dependent manner.
            (Xie and Price, 1996)
            lds is essential for the production of DRB (5,6-dichloro-1-β-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole)-sensitive long transcripts in vitro, and consists of two subunits of 124 and 43kD.
            (Marshall and Price, 1995)
            Mutations in lds cause chromatin bridges at anaphase.
            (Girdham and Glover, 1991)
            Immunocytological approach is used to address the behaviour of essential mitotic gene products in embryonic cell cycles.
            (Glover et al., 1991)
            lds protein from Kc cell nuclear extracts suppresses the appearance of incomplete transcripts.

            Origin and Etymology
            Discoverer
            Etymology
            Mutation is named "Horka" after a Hungarian clan that vanished by the beginning of the 14th century but their names survived in the names of settlements.
