There is only one protein coding transcript and one polypeptide associated with this gene
18 (kD observed); 10.5 (kD predicted)
Component of the Frs-CycA-Cdk1 complex composed of Z600, CycA and Cdk1. Interacts preferentially with CycA (via C-terminus) but is also able to interact (via C-terminus) with CycE (via C-terminus).

Comment: reference states 0-4 hr AEL
Z600 transcripts are detected starting at embryonic cycle 13. Transcripts initially accumulate uniformly, but become concentrated in the dorsal and posterior regions during cellularization, and persist in the dorsal regions of the embryo during gastrulation and germ band extension. No signal is detected after germ band extension.
Comment: reference states 0-4 hr AEL
The 18 kD Z600 protein is detected at low levels in 0-2 hr embryos and at higher levels in 2-4 hr embryos. No expression is detected in older embryos or in unfertilized eggs. Immunolocalization experiments reveal that expression is found only in nuclear cycle 11-13 embryos, associated with condensed chromatin. Protein is not detected at later stages, despite the presence of Z600 transcript.

Please Note FlyBase no longer curates genomic clone accessions so this list may not be complete
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.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

Z600 controls the cell cycle pause after precisely thirteen mitoses in embryos.
In embryos lacking Z600 function, cells in the ventral domain enter mitosis too early, causing a defective ventral furrow.
Variation of a microsatellite within the Z600 locus has been studied in North American populations of D.melanogaster.
The pattern of Z600 protein expression during early embryogenesis has been determined.
The spatial and temporal expression of Z600 RNA has been studied.
Identification: Part of an analysis of Eip71CD gene expression.
Z600 has been identified and characterised.
Member of cluster of genes that includes Eip28/29 and gdl. Believed to play role in processes of early development.
