Gene Snapshot

loquacious (loqs) encodes a double-stranded RNA binding protein with multiple splicing isoforms. loqs-PB and loqs-PA associate with the product of Dcr-1 to facilitate processing of precursor miRNA into mature miRNA, whereas loqs-PD interacts with the product of Dcr-2 to enhance processing of dsRNA into siRNA.

Additional comments

Other Comments

loqs acts primarily to process exogenous dsRNA.

(Marques et al., 2010)

Production of endogenous siRNAs depends on the loqs-PD isoform.

(Hartig et al., 2009)

The loqs-PD isoform is capable of associating with the Dcr-2 protein, but not with the Dcr-1 protein. The loqs-PB and loqs-PA isoforms can associate with the Dcr-1 protein, and also to some extent with Dcr-2 protein.

(Hartig et al., 2009)

Production of endogenous siRNAs depends on the loqs-PD isoform, whereas production of mature microRNAs from the pre-miRNA precursor requires the loqs-PB isoform.

(Zhou et al., 2009)

The loqs-PB isoform, and to a lesser extent the loqs-PA isoform, is capable of associating with the Dcr-1 protein. The loqs-PD isoform is capable of associating with the Dcr-2 protein, but not with the Dcr-1 protein.

(Zhou et al., 2009)

Production of mature siRNAs from endogenous long hairpin RNA genes is a hybrid mechanism that combines canonical RNA interference factors (Dcr-2, Hen1 and AGO2) and a canonical microRNA factor loqs.

(Okamura et al., 2008)

loqs is required intrinsically for germline stem cell maintenance in the ovary.

(Park et al., 2007)

loqs is not required for repeat-associated small interfering RNA (rasiRNA) production

(Vagin et al., 2006)

loqs is required together with Dcr-1 for normal pre-miRNA processing. loqs is required for the normal silencing of the endogenous Ste locus in the testis and appears to be required for maintenance of the germ-line stem cells in the ovary.

(Forstemann et al., 2005)

loqs protein alone is not capable of converting pre-miRNAs into mature miRNAs. However, the loqs and Dcr-1 proteins form a complex that converts pre-miRNAs into mature miRNAs, and the loqs protein stimulates and directs the specific pre-miRNA processing activity of Dcr-1 protein.

(Saito et al., 2005)

Origin and Etymology

Discoverer

Etymology

The gene is named "loquacious" because loss of function de-silences both endogenous silencing and reporter expression in vivo.

(Forstemann et al., 2005)

Gene is designated as "loquacious" ("very talkative") as several types of silencing are lost in mutant flies.

(Saito et al., 2005)
