janus family tyrosine kinase - regulates during segmentation - mutation creates an activated oncogene, causing hematopoietic neoplasms, overproliferation, and premature differentiation.

Forms a complex with Hsp83 and piwi; probably Hop mediates the interaction between piwi and Hsp83.
Possesses two phosphotransferase domains. The second one probably contains the catalytic domain (By similarity), while the presence of slight differences suggest a different role for domain 1 (By similarity).

Please Note FlyBase no longer curates genomic clone accessions so this list may not be complete
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 GBrowse 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.

Identified by PCR fragment; relationship to other protein tyrosine kinase genes not known.
Treatment of S2-derived S2-NP cells with dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against hop results in a 12-24-fold decrease in JAK/STAT activity.
When dsRNA constructs are made and transiently transfected into S2 cells in RNAi experiments, an increase in the proportion of G1 phase cells is seen.
dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R+ cell morphology.
hop is required for the renewal of male germline stem cells and for maintenance of the somatic cyst progenitor cell population in the testis.
hop is required for cell proliferation/survival in the eye imaginal disc, for the differentiation of photoreceptor cells, and for the establishment of the equator and of ommatidial polarity.

Mutations in Jak kinase, hop, can cause leukaemia-like abnormalities.
Mutants display neoplastic phenotype.
hop is required for cell division and proper embryonic segmentation.
Identification: Identified by PCR fragment; relationship to other protein tyrosine kinase genes not known.
Most of the mutants are homozygous late zygotic (L-P) lethals; one mutant is a larval lethal; two other mutants have some adult survivors (hemizygous males being morphologically normal, but 40% of the homozygous females and 85% of the hemizygous females showing major defects). Heteroallelic females are lethal with the exceptions noted under the alleles. There is a maternal effect on thoracic and abdominal segments, the most extreme embryos <up>produced from homozygous "l(1)hop" germ-line clones that have not received a paternal copy of hop+</up> showing defects in the posterior spiracles and in segments T2 (denticle belt deleted). T3, A4 and A5 (segment missing) and A8 (segment reduced in size); the least extreme mutant embryos from germ-line clones show defects in segment A5. Defects visible in early segmentation stages. The extent of the defects is dependent on the strength of the maternal alleles and the paternal contribution. Wild-type sperm can rescue all defects, except those in A5. A few of the rescued progeny hatch and develop into adults.
The wild-type allele of hop is required for the continued cell division of all diploid cells as well as the establishment of the normal array of segments.
hop is dosage compensated. All viable heteroallelic combinations are female sterile, failing to produce eggs or laying abnormal eggs that are small, with a clear chorion and with chorionic filaments absent or partially fused.
