Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene blistered is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\bs (CG3411, FBgn0004101). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: RNA polymerase II core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity involved in positive regulation of transcription; activating transcription factor binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: apposition of dorsal and ventral imaginal disc-derived wing surfaces; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; imaginal disc-derived wing vein morphogenesis; terminal branching, open tracheal system; imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis; sleep; open tracheal system development. 60 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: adult segment; organ system subdivision; organ system; adult mesothoracic segment; tracheal system; thoracic segment; appendage segment; embryonic/larval tracheal system; sensillum; non-connected developing system; cephalopharyngeal skeleton. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Armadillo-like helical; Transcription factor, MADS-box. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult female stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: larval/adult central nervous system, larval/adult midgut, larval Malpighian tubules, larval fat body, larval/adult salivary gland, adult ovary, larval carcass. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1630990_at completely aligns to an exonic region of only a subset of 1 of the 2 FlyBase-annotated transcript isoforms of bs. Gene sequence location is 2R:20230389..20263998.

bs: blistered
thumb
bs2: blistered-2
Edith M. Wallace, unpublished.
Wings blistered, small, pointed; venation thick and plexus-like with branches from and parallel to L5 beyond second crossvein, where there is a semidominant free vein effect. Temperature sensitive. RK2 at 19; RK3 at 25.

From Bridges and Morgan, 1919, Carnegie Inst. Washington Publ. No. 278: 148.
Wings at first inflated with hemolymph to produce blisters and vesicles; venation weak, plexus like; wings smaller, warped, discolored, and divergent. Effect caused by inadequate contraction of epithelium after inflated state of pupal wing [Waddington, 1940, J. Genet. 41: 75-139 (fig.)]. Sensitive to temperature. RK3 above 25; RK2 at 19 or below.

Additional Descriptive Data
bs transcripts are expressed ubiquitously in unfertilized eggs. The RNA fades away during germ band extension and zygotic expression is not detected until germ band retraction. At stage 14, expression is observed just beneath the epidermis in a cluster of 6-9 cells in the most anterior portion of each hemisegment from T2 to A8. Expression is also observed in the head, in two rows of cells along the midgut and in a single cell in each hemisegment of the CNS. Other sites include 1 to 2 cells in the dorsal part of each hemisegment from T to A6, cells along the pharyngeal muscle and along the hindgut. In late embryos, weaker expression is observed in somatic muscles.

Other sites include 1 to 2 cells in the dorsal part of each hemisegment from T2 to A6, cells along the pharyngeal muscle and along the hindgut. In late embryos, weaker expression is observed in somatic muscles. Using double staining techniques, it was shown that all of the cells that express bs strongly are tightly associated with the tracheal system.
Expression of bs occurs in the intervein tissue of the developing pupal wing in a pattern complementary to that of rho.

RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.
bs is involved in cell fate allocation and differentiation but does not participate in cell proliferation. The activity of bs is necessary to specify cells to adopt an intervein fate. It expression is repressed in larval stages in vein territories by genes of the Ras signalling pathway. The differentiation of vein and intervein depends on the outcome of a balance between bs and rho activities, achieved during pupal stages.
bs regulates formation of the terminal branches of the tracheal system. bs may function like mammalian SRF in an inducible transcription complex. Activation of the complex by signals from target tissues induces expression of genes involved in cytoplasmic outgrowth.
The bs gene product plays a dual role during wing differentiation. It acts in a dosage-dependent manner to suppress the formation of wing veins and is required cell-autonomously to promote the development of intervein cells. bs acts at a key step between regulatory genes that define the early positional values in the developing wing disc and the subsequent localized expression of intervein-specific structural genes.
Required for the formation and outgrowth of the terminal branches of the tracheal system.
The bs gene might play a role in the proper formation and maintenance of the trachea.
Developmental and genetic analyses suggest that the bs product is required during metamorphosis for the initiation of intervein development and the concommitant inhibition of vein development.
bs may affect dorsal-ventral flattening of the wing during prepupal morphogenesis.
