Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene modifier of mdg4 is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\mod(mdg4) (CG32491, FBgn0002781). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding; chromatin binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: regulation of apoptosis; male meiosis I; induction of apoptosis; male meiosis chromosome segregation; oogenesis; germ cell migration; regulation of chromatin assembly or disassembly. 67 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: eye; ovariole; terminal filament; ovary; wing; embryo. It has 31 annotated transcripts and 31 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: BTB/POZ; BTB/POZ fold; BTB/POZ-like; Zinc finger, FLYWCH-type. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Two or more Affy2 ProbeSets identify exons of this gene. This is a summary of the tissue expression peaks exhibited in at least one of these ProbeSets. Expression in all larval and adult organs/tissues ranges from low to undetected. Expression at high levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: larval salivary gland, adult male accessory gland. Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult eye, larval/adult central nervous system, adult crop, larval hindgut, larval/adult Malpighian tubules, adult heart, larval fat body, adult salivary gland, larval trachea, adult female reproductive system, larval carcass. Gene sequence location is 3R:17177331..17203121.

Comments
The "Doom" variant of mod(mdg4) protein induces apoptosis in insect cells which is inhibited by baculovirus IAP (inhibitor-of-apoptosis). The region of the "Doom" protein required for apoptosis and for binding to baculovirus IAP genes maps to the carboxy-terminal end. Carboxy-terminal amino acids 403-514 are unique to the "Doom" protein and distinguish it from other mod(mdg4) proteins.
Genetic studies showed that mod(mdg4) protein acts through the su(Hw) binding region, either by binding directly to DNA or by interacting with the su(Hw) protein. Purified mod(mdg4) protein was used to distinguish between these possibilites. Results indicate that mod(mdg4) protein does not interact with DNA from the su(Hw)-binding region but does interact with su(Hw) protein.
mod(mdg4) protein is distributed at many sites along the polytene chromosomes including the BXC and ANTC complexes and the white gene. Many of these sites are correlated with less condensed interbands.

DNA-protein interactions: genome-wide binding profile assayed for mod(mdg4) protein in 0-12 hr embryos. Individual protein-binding experiments listed under "Samples" at GEO: 16245 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE16245).
mod(mdg4) proteins can be modified by smt3.
The Hrp59 protein binds preferentially to a subset of mRNAs, including mod(mdg4) mRNA.
mod(mdg4) has a role in the maintenance of homologous chromosome pairing in meiosis.
Interallelic complementation in the mod(mdg4) gene is a consequence of trans-splicing between two different mutant transcripts, ensuring wild type levels of functional gene product.
Transgene analysis proves mRNA trans-splicing at the mod(mdg4) locus.
The principal 2.2kb transcript of the mod(mdg4) locus appears to be composed of sequences derived from different DNA strands; exons I to IV are derived from one strand, and exons V and VI are derived from sequences on the complementary strand. The genomic organisation of the mod(mdg4) locus suggests that two RNA precursors are transcribed to yield the 2.2kb transcript; a "class I" precursor ("doom") which contains mod(mdg4) exons I to IV (plus another downstream exon), and a "class II" precursor containing mod(mdg4) exons V to VI (this class II precursor is transcribed from the complementary strand to the class I precursor). Trans splicing of the two RNA precursors could produce the 2.2kb transcript (a programmed genomic rearrangement to bring all the coding sequences to the same DNA strand has been ruled out using Southern-blot analysis. It is also possible that a switch to a different template by RNA polymerase II could produce the 2.2kb transcript, although this has never been described. In addition, recombination between precursor RNA molecules could produce the 2.2kb transcript, but this has not been reported in eukaryotes).
Mutations in the genomic region encoding exons 1-4 show enhancement of PEV and homeotic transformation and affect viability and fertility. mod(mdg4) not only interacts with trx group genes in transcriptional regulation of homeotic genes but also in gene silencing caused by PEV.
The molecular and genetic complexity of mod(mdg4) is underlaid by a large set of individual protein isoforms with specific functions in regulating the chromatin structure of different sets of genes throughout development. In direction of increasing cytology: mod(mdg4)- tin+
A regulatory mutation in mod(mdg4) results in abnormal synapse specificity and synapse morphology.
A stripe expression assay in which the gypsy\su(Hw)BR is inserted between defined enhancers and placed among divergently transcribed reporter genes (w and Ecol\lacZ) containing distinct core promoter sequences has been used to analysed the role of mod(mdg4) in gypsy\su(Hw)BR activity. mod(mdg4) is essential for the enhancer blocking activity of the gypsy\su(Hw)BR. In addition, reductions in mod(mdg4)+ activity cause the gypsy\su(Hw)BR to function as a promoter-specific enhancer that selectively represses w but not the closely linked Ecol\lacZ gene, suggesting that the gypsy\su(Hw)BR does not propagate changes in chromatin structure.
Two acidic domains of su(Hw) that are dispensable for the unidirectional repression of enhancer elements are critical for the bidirectional silencing of enhancer activity observed in mutants lacking functional mod(mdg4) protein.
"doom", an alternative splice product of the mod(mdg4) gene, induces apoptosis and forms a complex with baculovirus inhibitor-of-apoptosis proteins in S.frugiperda cells.
Identification: Direct physical interaction with several baculovirus Inhibitors of Apoptosis (IAPs).
mod(mdg4) protein induces rapid apoptosis in insect cells. The carboxy terminal encoded by the 3' exon is responsible for the induction of apoptosis and the engagement of IAPs.
mod(mdg4) exerts its effect on gypsy-induced mutations only in the presence of a functional su(Hw) protein. Its effect on the y locus depends on the properties and location of the gypsy\su(Hw)BR within y.
The autosomal "FLP-DFS" technique (using the P{ovoD1-18} P{FRT(whs)} P{hsFLP} chromosomes) has been used to identify the specific maternal effect phenotype for the zygotic lethal mutation. mod(mdg4) is required for germ cell viability or early oogenesis.
The repressive effect of su(Hw) on y2 expression is limited to the chromosome in which the su(Hw) binding sites in gypsy are present. The negative effect of the su(Hw) protein can be transmitted to the gene present on the other homologous paired chromosome in the presence of mod(mdg4) mutations. They allow the su(Hw) protein to act in trans and inhibit the action of the y enhancers located in the homologous chromosome on the promoter of their gene.
Sequence comparison indicates that mod(mdg4) and E(var)93D are the same gene.
Enhancement of the y phenotype of gypsy-induced alleles by mutations in mod(mdg4) requires an intact su(Hw)-binding region and the su(Hw) protein itself.
Genetic and molecular data suggests that the gene products of the mod(mdg4) locus are generally involved in establishing and/or maintaining an open chromatin conformation. mod(mdg4) is a position regulator of the bithorax complex.
Interactions between mod(mdg4) and su(Hw) mutations have been studied by their effect on the phenotypic expression of mutations induced by insertion of a gypsy element.
The effects of su(Hw) and mod(mdg4) on a set of y alleles derived in a super-unstable system has been assessed: results suggests that the same regulatory protein may influence gene expression in opposite directions.
One mutation in mod(mdg4) is due to insertion of a Stalker element.
mod(mdg4) seems to be involved in the control of gypsy element expression.
