hide Phenotypic Description from the Red Book (Lindsley & Zimm 1992)
Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
nos: nanos
Maternal-effect lethal. Mutant embryos lack abdominal segments, but have normal pole cells and pole plasm; no posterior activity in pole plasm. Transport or diffusion of the nos gene product from the posterior of the embryo seems to be essential for development of the wild-type abdominal pattern. Presence of the nos protein represses the activity of of the gene product encoded by the hb maternal transcript in the posterior half of the embryo (Hulskamp et al., 1989; Irish et al., 1989; Struhl, 1989). Eggs deficient for both hb and nos, when fertilized by hb+ sperm, develop into normal embryos and subsequently into viable flies.

Additional Descriptive Data
The 2.4 kb nos transcript is detected at high levels in ovaries and in 0-2 hour embryos, and at much lower levels in 2-8 hour embryos. This transcript is not detected in older embryos, larvae, or pupae. The nos transcript localizes to the posterior pole of stage 1-2 embryos. The levels of nos transcript in pole cells are high at stage 3 and 4, and have declined dramatically by early germ band extension (stage 8), with no pole cell-specific staining detected after stage 10.
nos transcripts containing a bcd3'UTR are localized at the anterior end of embryos in a distributionresembling the wild type bcd pattern.
During oogenesis, nos transcipt is first clearly detected at stage S5, in both nurse cells and oocytes. At stage S7-8, nos transcript transiently localizes to the anterior margin of the oocyte. At stage S10, a high level of nos transcript is present in oocytes; this transcript subsequently dumped into the oocyte. By stage S12, nos transcript begins to accumulate at the posterior pole of the oocyte, and is localized to the posterior pole of the oocyte at the later stages of oogenesis. In embryos, nos transcript is undetectable after germ band extension.
in situ hybridization detects a localized nos transcript at the posterior pole in embryos, however, northern blot analysis detects high transcript levels in both anterior and posterior embryo halves, indicating that transcript is expressed uniformly, and subsequently localized to the posterior pole.
As deduced from GFP labeled nos transcripts in early egg chambers nos transcript localizes to the posterior of the oocyte. There is a transient redistribution to an anterior ring at the margin of the oocyte during stages 8 and 9. nos transcript is no longer detected in the oocyte at stage 10. At stage 10b nurse cell dumping is initiated and by stage 11 nos transcript can be detected in the posterior cortex of the oocyte with a punctate distribution. Cooccurence with vas protein suggests that nos transcript associates with the germ plasm. Maximum accumulation of nos transcript is observed at stage 13/14.
In wild type and in pum mutant embryos, nos RNA is localized to the posterior pole plasm.
Wild type nos transcripts are expressed in a wild type pattern at the posterior pole in nosbcd.3UTR embryos. wild type nos transcripts are absent in nosbcd.3UTR embryos from osk1 females.

Additional Descriptive Data
During oogenesis, nos protein can be detected strongly in germarium region 1, and weakly in germarium region 2a. Low levels of nos protein can be observed in nurse cell/oocyte clusters at stages S3-6, and high levels in nurse cells at stage S10. nos protein is never observed in oocytes. After pole bud formation in embryos, nos protein is rapidly degraded outside of the pole cells. nos protein is observed in embryonic germline cells as late as embryonic stage 15.
Highest levels of nos protein in the germarium are detected in germline cysts in region 2. Levels decline as the cysts are encapsulated by somatic cells. Lower levels of nos protein have previously been observed in the germline stem cells and dividing cystoblasts (FBrf0074750).
In wild type embryos, nos protein forms a concentration gradient emanating from the posterior pole and extending into the presumptive abdomen. nos protein distribution is indistinguishable in wild type and pum mutant embryos, as assayed by filtered fluorescence-imaging.
nos protein is expressed in opposing gradients emanating from the anterior and posterior poles of the embryo in nosbcd.3UTR embryos. In nosbcd.3UTR embryos from osk1 mothers, a single gradient of nos expression emanates from the anterior pole.

Regulation of nos protein expression in wild-type germaria depends on sequences in the 3'UTR of the transcript.
nos is not required for the initial elaboration of dendritic branches in class IV da neurons, but is required at later stages of development to maintain dendrite complexity.
nos mRNA localisation is dispensible for normal abdominal patterning in the embryo, providing that nos translation is properly modulated. In contrast, localisation of nos mRNA to the germ plasm, but not translational regulation, is essential for nos function in the developing germ cells.
nos is essential for establishing and maintaining germline stem cells by preventing their precocious entry into oogenesis. nos is required cell autonomously for germline stem cell renewal (though not cyst differentiation). It is likely that nos represses the translation of differentiation factors in primoridal germ cells and germline stem cells. Zygotic nos is required at two distinct phases during pre-oogenic PGC development. The first pase is embryonic to first larval instar. The second phase is from the late third-instar to the pupal stage, that spans germline stenm cell establishment.
nos and pum control the elaboration of high-order dendritic branches of class III and IV, but not class I and II, dendritic arborization neurons. nos and pum require each other to control dendrite morphogenesis, but hb is not required.
Posterior localization of nos RNA initiates immediately upon nurse cell dumping and occurs by diffusion, entrapment and actin-dependent anchoring of RNA entering the oocyte. Long range movement of nos RNA can occur in the absence of oocyte streaming.
The CCHC zinc finger motifs of nos, which coordinate two metal ions, are essential for all known functions of the nos protein. The "tail region" C-terminal to the zinc fingers is required for abdomen formation and germ cell migration, but not for oogenesis.
The joint action of two RNA degradation pathways (a maternally encoded and a zygotic pathway) controls maternal transcript degradation and its timing in the early embryo. nos transcripts (relatively rare in abundance) are degraded almost exclusively by the maternal pathway.
Localisation of nos RNA by components of the posteriorly localised germ plasm activates its translation by preventing interaction of nos RNA with translational repressors.
In the female germ line nos is required for the functioning of stem cells. In the male germline, nos is required for the maintenance of stem cells.
In mutant females, germline stem cells divide only a few times and then degenerate, due to loss of plasma membrane. Following germ cell loss, germaria carry on massive mitochondrial biogenesis activity. In mutant males, spermatogenesis is progressively affected and the males eventually become sterile.
The developmental defects of nos- pole cells can be traced to the blastoderm stage. nos- pole cells, but not nos+ pole cells, are transcriptionally active in the blastoderm. The nos- pole cells also abnormally continue dividing, instead of becoming quiescent. Sxl is an important target for repression by nos in germ cells.
The nos gene product forms a ternary complex with the RNA-binding domain of pum and the hb NRE (nos response element).
Maternally deposited nos is essential for normal germ cell migration. Lack of zygotic activity of nos and pum has a dramatic effect on germline development of homozygous females. nos and pum act in the germline, affecting germline stem cell development. nos function lies in the differentiation of the stem cell progeny, the cystoblast. nos and pum may interact with different partners in the germline.
Germ cells of embryos deriving from nos females do not show premature enhancer trap line gene expression, contrary to previous reports (FBrf0087514).
In a sample of 79 genes with multiple introns, 33 showed significant heterogeneity in G+C content among introns of the same gene and significant positive correspondence between the intron and the third codon position G+C content within genes. These results are consistent with selection adding against preferred codons at the start of genes.
A Cys-Cys-His-Cys metal-binding domain in nos is essential for translational regulation. Each of two CCHC motifs are essential for nos activity. Each is capable of binding Zn(II) or Co(II) ions. nos binds to RNA with high affinity but cannot alone discriminate between mutant and wild-type NRE RNAs.
A study of the mechanisms of nos-mediated translational repression indicates that nos and pum determine posterior morphology by promoting the deadenylation of maternal hb mRNA, thereby repressing its translation.
The nos protein gradient in embryos is generated by translational regulation acting through the 184bp TCE (Translational Control Element) of the 3' UTR. The TCE is required to prevent the translation of unlocalized nos mRNA.
Cis-acting sequences within the nos 3'UTR, both necessary and sufficient for localisation of RNA to the posterior of the embryo, occupy a 547 nucleotide region and contain sequences that are partially redundant in function.
A 90 nucleotide region of the nos 3'UTR is identified that mediated translational repression of unlocalised nos RNA, this region is designated as the nos translational control element (TCE).
nos is essential for germline formation, pole cells lacking nos activity fail to migrate into the gonads so do not become functional germ cells. In such pole cells, gene expression begins prematurely during pole cell migration. Premature activation of genes in these germline precursors may mean that these cells fail to develop normally.
smg protein represses translation of unlocalized nos mRNA in the embryo. Two SREs (smg Response elements) map to the nos 3' UTR.
nos is a conserved organiser of anterior-posterior patterning in the Diptera.
Posterior localisation of the nos RNA is mediated by sequences within the 3' untranslated region and requires the function of eight posterior group genes. Unlocalised nos RNA is translationally repressed, this repression is mediated by the 3' untranslated region. Sequences that mediate translational repression overlap but are independent of those required for localisation.
Variation of a microsatellite within the nos locus has been studied in North American populations of D.melanogaster.
nos response elements (NRE) in the hb mRNA mediate nos repression of hb maternal transcript translation. pum protein is an NRE binding factor, pum recognises the NRE and recruits nos, the resulting complex is thought to inhibit some component of the translation machinery.
A small part of the nos 3'UTR, called NTE1, inhibits translation of the nos product. Additional sequences in the 3'UTR are required for posterior group gene-dependent activation of nos translation.
The nos gene product primarily recognises nanos response element (NRE) bound proteins, the pum gene product, and this complex interferes with translation of hb mRNA.
Posterior localisation of nos RNA is mediated by sequences within the nos 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) and required the function of eight genes of the posterior group. Unlocalised nos RNA in embryos mutant for any of the posterior genes is stable and the embryos develop abdominal defects characteristic of nos mutants. Unlocalised nos RNA is translationally repressed, repression is mediated by the 3' UTR and can be alleviated by replacement of the UTR with heterologous UTR sequences or posterior localisation.
nos is involved in the directed intercalation of cells during germ band extension.
Comparisons of early development to that in other insects have revealed conservation of some aspects of development, as well as differences that may explain variations in early patterning events.
A screen for suppressors of nos mutations identified alleles of E(z). E(z) is required to maintain the expression domain of kni and gt initiated by the maternal hb gradient. A small region of the kni promoter mediates regulation by E(z) and hb. Imprinting at the chromatin level may underlie the determination of anteroposterior polarity in the early embryo.
Distribution of tud protein in mutant embryos has been studied.
pumilio, expressed in the same pattern as nanos, is not required for either the expression of nanos protein or its transport to the presumptive abdomen.
nanos 3' untranslated region is sufficient for nanos RNA localization. In experiments using bicoid sequences to mislocalise nanos, embryos with mirror image symmetry with double abdomens result if nanos is localised at both the anterior and posterior ends. Anteriorly localised nos suppresses translation of maternally supplied hunchback mRNA and thereby alters gap gene expression.
Overexpression of osk leads to higher levels of osk mRNA that is both correctly localised to the posterior pole and unlocalised. Consequently nos is activated ectopically causing extensive shifts in body patterning. Germ cell formation is also affected, this can be enhanced by genetically decreasing nos activity.
nos acts to prevent the expression of hb in the posterior half of the embryo.
Expression from the Ecol\lacZ-Kr730 Kr-promoter fusion construct was monitored in nos- embryos to ensure the target site for nos mediated Kr expression has not been lost.
gt may respond to the posterior morphogen nos in the embryo. nos represses maternal hb expression post-transcriptionally, so the effect of nos on gt expression may be mediated through hb.
nos is critical for pole plasm formation and is required for the synthesis of the posterior signal in the nurse cells. The distribution of the signal to the presumptive posterior pole occurs after egg deposition. BicD,nos embryos suppress all abdominal development: the nos gene is critical for the normal and ectopic presence of the posterior signal.
Mutations in maternal posterior class gene nos do not interact with RpII140wimp.
nos gene product has been isolated and characterised.
The degree of regulation mediated by the NREs in maternal hb mRNA depends on the level of nos.
nos mutants exhibit deletion of the abdomen and pole plasm.
Mature follicles are immunologically stained for asymmetric distribution of ecdysteroid-related antigen. During late oogenesis localisation of the antigen changes dramatically suggesting the antigen plays a role in early embryogenesis and, perhaps, in pattern formation.
nos gene function is not required for pole cell formation.
nos plays a role in polar granule formation.
Double anterior structure induction in nos is more efficient by genetic methods, within nos mutant embryos, than removal of posterior cytoplasm.
