Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene apontic is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\apt (CG5393, FBgn0015903). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; protein binding; sequence-specific DNA binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: central nervous system development; neuromuscular synaptic transmission; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; open tracheal system development. 65 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: organ system; organ system subdivision; cephalopharyngeal skeleton; adult segment; non-connected developing system; synapse; multicellular structure; pharyngeal sclerite; portion of tissue; peripheral nervous system. It has 5 annotated transcripts and 5 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Myb/SANT-like domain; SANT domain, DNA binding. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Little or no expression detected in any larval or adult organs/tissues. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1625844_s_at completely aligns to an exonic region common to each of the 5 FlyBase-annotated transcript isoforms of apt. Gene sequence location is 2R:19452377..19487049.

Additional Descriptive Data
During oogenesis, apt transcript is detected both in somatic follicle cells, and the nurse cells and oocyte. Expression is detected early, at low levels in the germarium region 2a and at higher levels in the follicle cells. Somatic expression decreases while germline expression increases. At stage S6, expression is found in both the oocyte and in nurse cells, and continues to be detected throughout oogenesis.
A single 2.9 kb apt transcript is detected in Northern blots of 0-18 hr embryos. Maternal transcripts are uniformly distributed in the unfertilized egg and in the syncytial blastoderm. In the cellular blastoderm, transcript is distributed in 3 distinct regions. At stage 11, expression is detected in developing tracheal placodes, the head region, and dorsal vessel cells. Transcripts are maintained in tracheal cells after they migrate inwards, and during tracheal branch outgrowth. During stages 14-17, expression is mainly detected in the CNS, the developing head, the tracheal system, and dorsal vessel cells.
apt transcripts are ubiquitous in syncytial blastoderm stage embryos, but become restricted to the poles in cellular blastoderm stage embryos. The posterior expression disappears during germ band extension, and a segmentally repeated expression pattern appears in the trunk. This expression is found along the ventral midline, in dorsal cells abutting the amnioserosa, and in the tracheal placodes. In the head regions of stage 9-10 embryos, expression is detected in the dorsal part of the acron, the clypeo-labrum, the ventral gnathal region, and in the anterio-lateral regions of the mandibular, maxillary, and labial lobes. During stage 11, expression increases in the dorsal ridge, but disappears from the tracheal pits. At stage 12, the presumptive dorsal vessel cells in a single row on either side of the amnioserosa accumulate apt transcript; expression is also found in the ventral CNS. Expression in late embryogenesis is found in the head epidermis and CNS.

Additional Descriptive Data
apt protein is detected in both the cytoplasm and nucleus of germline cells. In the nurse cell, apt protein localizes more strongly to the cytoplasm, while it is more concentrated in the nucleus of the oocyte. In follicle cells, however, localization is nuclear. In early embryos, even after the nuclei have migrated to the surface of the embryo, apt protein is evenly distributed between nucleus and cytoplasm.
apt protein is evenly distributed in they cytoplasm of syncytial blastoderm stage embryos. Subsequently, expression is detected in the nucleus, and remains nuclear throughout the rest of embryogenesis. Expression is detected in all nuclei in the cellular blastoderm, and maintained until gastrulation. During stage 11, expression is detected in tracheal placodes and the head anlagen, while other expression disappears. At later stages, protein expression matches that of transcript expression.

apt is required for morphogenesis and function of the heart.
Identification: Enhancer trap expression pattern survey for loci expressed in the ring gland.
Molecular characterisation of apt. apt protein activity enables cells to migrate during tracheal branch outgrowth and tube formation. apt activity is a prerequisite for tracheal cell migration but independent of directed cell migration in response to dpp and bnl signalling. apt function is not restricted to the tracheal system but is also required in various other embryonic tissues where the gene is expressed.
apt is required for the elaboration of dorsal and ventral head structures. The apt protein acts in parallel to, or as a cofactor with, HOX proteins to regulate homeotic targets in the ventral gnathal region.
Identified in a screen for modifiers of the Dfd13/Dfd3 mutant phenotype. Shows no interaction with the Pc mutant phenotype.
Mutations isolated on the basis of having a dominant effect on the viability of flies carrying a combination of hypomorphic Dfd alleles.
The autosomal "FLP-DFS" technique (using the P{ovoD1-18} P{FRT(whs)} P{hsFLP} chromosomes) has been used to identify the specific maternal effect phenotype for the zygotic lethal mutation.
Embryonic lethal with abnormal head structures.
