HLH106, dSREBP, SREBF1, l(3)76BDw, SREBP1
bHLH-leucine zipper transcription factor - membrane bound HLH106 is released by phosphatidylethanolamine, exerting feedback control on the synthesis of fatty acids and phospholipids - cleavage by Drice releases an SREBP fragment to travel to the nucleus where it mediates the increased transcription of target genes needed for lipid synthesis and uptake

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
Low-frequency RNA-Seq exon junction(s) not annotated.
Annotated transcripts do not represent all supported alternative splices within 5' UTR.

The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).
Comment: maternally deposited
SREBP transcripts are expressed throughout development.
Both the full-length precursor and the activated, nuclear forms of SREBP are detected in the retina.

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 JBrowse 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.
SREBP mutants exhibit lipid droplet accumulation in glia, but this does not lead to premature neurodegeneration.
S2 cells treated with dsRNA generated against this gene show reduced phagocytosis of Candida albicans compared to untreated cells.
RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.
Phosphatidylethanolamine controls the release of HLH106 protein from cell membranes.
Area matching Drosophila HLH106 gene, Acc. No. U38238.
HLH106, a SREBP homolog from Drosophila, has been isolated. The similarity in the domain structure to vertebrate SREBP is a strong argument that the proteins have related functions.
HLH106 is related to human sterol regulatory protein SREBP-1.
