FlyBase Gene Report: Dmel\faf

UBIQUITIN SPECIFIC PROTEASES (DEUBIQUITINASES) -: The Ubiquitin Specific Proteases (USP) is the largest sub-family of deubiquitinases. They are cysteine proteases and catalyze the removal of ubiquitin from ubiquitin chains and ubiquitinated proteins. (Adapted from PMID:19626045).

Protein Function (UniProtKB)

Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase involved in development and the imd/NF-kappa-B (IMD) signaling cascade (PubMed:23919485, PubMed:1295747). Required for eye and embryo development, and plays a role in compound eye assembly and oogenesis respectively (PubMed:1295747). In the larval eye disks, cells outside the assembling facets require this protein for short-range cell interactions that prevent the mystery cells from becoming photoreceptors (PubMed:1295747). Also required for nuclear migration and cellularization in early embryogenesis and could play a role in pole cell determination, development or function (PubMed:1295747). Regulates the IMD signaling cascade at later stages of infection (around 6 hours post-infection) by inhibiting the expression of the antimicrobial peptides Dpt and Dro (PubMed:23919485). Acts by modulating the state of imd polyubiquitination and/or stability; a function which appears to be independent of its enzymatic activity (PubMed:23919485). In turn, imd enhances the polyubiquitination and stability of faf suggesting that they may form a regulatory feedback mechanism within the Imd pathway (PubMed:23919485).

Additional Descriptive Data

faf transcripts are detected in the germarium and in the egg chambers at subsequent stages of oogenesis. faf transcripts are observed in nurse cells and unlike faf protein, do not localize to the posterior of the oocyte at stage S10. The probe used does not distinguish between the two faf transcripts.

Additional Descriptive Data

faf protein distribution was deduced from the localization of a fafFBtr0091350:pb-XRlacZ fusion protein. faf protein is detected in eye imaginal discs ahead of and behind the morphogenetic furrow but not in the furrow. It is also observed in other imaginal discs, fat body, gut, larval ovary and testis, and adult male sex organs. faf protein is detected in ovaries in the germarium and at all subsequent stages of oogenesis. Staining is restricted to the nurse cells until stage S10 when it becomes apparent at the oocyte posterior pole. Posterior localization of faf is dependent on osk.

faf protein distribution was deduced from the localization of a fafFBtr0091350:pb-XRlacZ fusion protein. faf protein is detected in eye imaginal discs ahead of the morphogenetic furrow and at a lower level behind the furrow but not in the furrow. It is also observed in other imaginal discs, fat body, gut, larval ovary and testis, and adult male sex organs. faf protein is detected in ovaries in the germarium and at all subsequent stages of oogenesis. Staining is restricted to the nurse cells until stage S10 when it becomes apparent at the oocyte posterior pole. Posterior localization of faf is dependent on osk.

dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R⁺ cell morphology.

(Kiger et al., 2003)

lqf is ubiquitinated in vivo and is deubiquitinated by faf.

(Chen et al., 2002)

faf de-ubiquitination has a role in controlling the level of activity of critical regulatory molecules at the synapse.

(DiAntonio et al., 2001)

faf and lqf facilitate endocytosis and antagonise ubiquitination. They function in common cells to generate an inhibitory signal that prevents ectopic photoreceptor cell determination.

(Cadavid et al., 2000)

faf gene activity antagonises Ubi-p63E mediated proteolysis.

(Wu et al., 1999)

Analysis of genetic interactions among faf and R and Ras85D reveals that in addition to its critical role anterior to the morphogenetic furrow, faf has a function in undifferentiated cells alter in eye development that involves, probably indirectly, Ras85D and R. These results suggest that cells outside the facet influence cell fates within the facet.

(Li et al., 1997)

Shows no genetic interaction with sdk.

(Nguyen et al., 1997)

faf is essential only early in eye development and only outside of the 7-cell precluster and cone cell precursors. The critical role of faf in eye development is not in the regulation of argos, aop or Gap1 activities, nor in the regulation of any other protein that functions within cells of the developing facets. Undifferentiated cells outside the facet precluster direct ommatidial assembly by sending to the mystery cells and other cells an inhibitory signal, regulated by faf protein.

(Huang and Fischer-Vize, 1996)

The faf protein acts as a regulatory Ubiquitin-specific protease that prevents degradation of its substrate by the proteasome. The faf Ubiquitin-specific protease is cell type- and substrate-specific and regulates cell fate decisions.

(Huang et al., 1995)

faf is required for cell interactions that prevent particular cells in the developing eye from becoming photoreceptors. Mosaic analysis indicates that faf is required in cells close to, but outside the normal developing photoreceptors and also outside the ectopic photoreceptors in mutant facets. The faf product is also required during oogenesis (embryos from faf mutant mothers never cellularize, except for the pole cells), but is not required for nos localization or function. The faf gene has been cloned, and all regions essential for its function identified by transformation rescue of the mutant phenotypes. faf-Ecol\lacZ chimeric proteins become posteriorly localized in oocytes, and the first 392 amino acids of faf protein is sufficient for this localization.
