Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene lodestar is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\lds (CG2684, FBgn0002542). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: DNA-dependent ATPase activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: female meiosis; transcription termination, DNA-dependent; microtubule anchoring at centrosome; spermatogenesis. 27 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: onion stage spermatid; trichogen cell; centrosome; individualization stage spermatid. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: DEAD-like helicase; Helicase, C-terminal; SNF2-related. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: larval central nervous system, adult ovary, adult testis. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1634695_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of lds. Gene sequence location is 3R:3746156..3750211.

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
A major 3.5kb lds transcript is detected throughout development and is abundant in early embryos and adult females. A minor 3.8kb lds transcript is detected in early embryos and in females. In females, lds transcripts are ovary-specific.

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.

Additional comments
scaRNA:mgU2-41 is encoded in an intron of lds.
'Note added in proof' in FBrf0080432 was in error; mus309, l(3)87Ae and lds are not, in fact, allelic.
 
hide 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.
Transcript release activity of lds requires ATP or dATP and NTPs do not support the activity.
A 154kD lds protein has been purified. This factor causes the release of transcripts by RNA polymerase II in an ATP-dependent manner.
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.
Mutations in lds cause chromatin bridges at anaphase.
Immunocytological approach is used to address the behaviour of essential mitotic gene products in embryonic cell cycles.
lds protein from Kc cell nuclear extracts suppresses the appearance of incomplete transcripts.
