    Shows particularly robust cycling of transcription in adult heads, as assessed by expression analysis using high density oligonucleotide arrays with probe generated during three 12-point time course experiments over the course of 6 days.

    (Claridge-Chang et al., 2001)

    rux is involved in mitotic exit.

    (Foley and Sprenger, 2001)

    rux is a distinct and specialised cell cycle inhibitor for CycA dependant kinase activity.

    (Avedisov et al., 2000)

    rux is a cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor (CKI) specific for mitotic cyclin-cdk complexes.

    (Foley et al., 1999)

    The mechanism by which dpp mediates G1 arrest in the morphogenetic furrow does not require rux.

    (Horsfield et al., 1998)

    In vitro studies demonstrate rux binds CycE but does not inhibit CycE-Cdk activity directly. Overexpression studies suggest the ectopic rux converts the mitotic cycle into an endoreplication cycle by down-regulating CycA-associated kinase activity.

    (Thomas et al., 1997)

    rux acts genetically to negatively regulate CycA and stg.

    (Thomas et al., 1995)

    rux is a dose-dependent regulator of meiosis II during spermatogenesis. rux appears to act through CycA during premeiotic G2 to regulate meiosis II.

    (Gonczy et al., 1994)

    rux functions as a negative regulator of G1 progression in the developing eye.

    (Thomas et al., 1994)

    The rux mutant phenotype is due to a developmental defect: pattern formation defect.
