Gene Snapshot

Posterior sex combs (Psc) was originally identified as a member of the Polycomb group of genes that regulate gene expression through epigenetic marks. [Date last reviewed: 2019-03-14]

Gene Group (FlyBase)

dRING-ASSOCIATED FACTORS -: The Drosophila Polycomb group complex dRING-associated factors (dRAF) catalyzes histone H2A K119 ubiquitination and H3K36me2 removal. Therefore, dRAF removes an active mark from histone H3 and adds a repressive one to H2A. (Adapted from FBrf0215737).
POLYCOMB REPRESSIVE COMPLEX 1 (CORE SUBUNITS) -: The Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) is a Polycomb group complex. It binds to histone H3K27me3 (histone H3 K27 methylation is catalyzed by PRC2) and monoubiquitinates H2A on K119. This leads to chromatin compaction, RNA polymerase II stalling and gene silencing. (Adapted from FBrf0179742 and FBrf0228921).

Protein Function (UniProtKB)

Polycomb group (PcG) protein. PcG proteins act by forming multiprotein complexes, which are required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of homeotic genes throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression, but to maintain it during later stages of development. Component of the PcG multiprotein PRC1 complex, a complex that acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-118', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. Needed to maintain expression patterns of the homeotic selector genes of the Antennapedia (Antp-C) and Bithorax (BX-C) complexes, and hence for the maintenance of segmental determination.

(UniProt, P35820)

Phenotypic Description (Red Book; Lindsley and Zimm 1992)

Psc: Posterior sex combs

Psc+ is another gene that may be considered a negative regulator of the BXC or the ANTC. The mutant is homo- and hemizygous lethal, the embryos showing partial transformation of head and thorax into abdomen and of abdominal segments 1-7 into more posterior ones. Psc/Psc embryos that are also homozygous for Asx, Pcl, or Scm show stronger posteriorly-directed transformations; the triple mutant Psc Asx Pcl has a tandem array of posterior abdominal segments including four abdominal denticle bands in the head region (Jurgens, 1985). Psc/+ males may have sex combs on second and third legs. The gene suppresses z1 eye color, which becomes orange-maroon; it is lethal with Su(z)21 and Su(z)25 and semiviable with Su(z)24 (Wu et al., 1989). Psc and Su(z)2 are both members of the Su(z)2 complex.

Subunit Structure (UniProtKB)

Component of PRC1 complex, which contains many PcG proteins like Pc, ph, Scm, Psc, Sce and also chromatin-remodeling proteins such as histone deacetylases. This complex is distinct from the Esc/E(z) complex, at least composed of esc, E(z), Su(z)12, Rpd3 and Caf1-55. The 2 complexes however cooperate and interact together during the first 3 hours of development to establish PcG silencing.

Additional comments

A member of the Su(z)2 complex.

(Wu et al., 1989)

Other Comments

Psc on its own is able to inhibit chromatin remodelling in vitro.

(Francis et al., 2001)

Pc, Scm, Psc, ph-p and ph-d contribute to the PRC1 (Polycomb repressive complex 1). PRC1 directly antagonizes ATP-dependent remodeling of nucleosomal arrays in a purified system and may directly modulate (and be modified by) SWI/SNF (brm/mor) activity.

(Shao et al., 1999)

ph-p, Psc and Pc proteins coimmunoprecipitate from nuclear extracts. Interacting domains are identified and delimited using the two-hybrid system, the interactions are shown to be direct by using an in vitro binding assay.

(Kyba and Brock, 1998)

Psc protein coimmunoprecipitates Pc and ph-d/ph-p indicating they are members of a common multimeric protein complex. These proteins are associated with identical regulatory elements of en and differentially distributed on regulatory sequences of inv.

(Strutt and Paro, 1997)

Asx, Pc, Pcl, Psc, Scm and Sce have similar functions in some imaginal tissues.

(Campbell et al., 1995)

Most duplications of Pc-group genes neither exhibit anterior transformations nor suppress the extra sex comb phenotype of Pc-group mutations, suggesting that not all Pc-group genes behave as predicted by the mass action model.

(Campbell et al., 1995)

Sections of the Scr regulatory region may be important for regulation of Scr by Polycomb- and trithorax-group genes.

(Gindhart and Kaufman, 1995)

Mosaic and expression pattern analysis reveals that the Pc-group genes do not act only in a common complex or pathway: they must have some independent functions.

(Soto et al., 1995)

The mutant phenotypes of Psc, Su(z)2 and Su(z)3, the similarities of the phenotypes and the mutational interactions between them suggest that the products are functionally similar and act at the level of chromatin, possibly as a multimeric complex.

(Wu and Howe, 1995)

The alleles of Psc define two overlapping phenotypic classes, the 'hopeful' and the 'hapless' alleles.

(Wu and Howe, 1995)

The distinction between 'hopeful' and 'hapless' alleles and intragenic complementation seen among some Psc alleles are consistent with a multidomain structure for the Psc product.

(Wu and Howe, 1995)

Members of the Pc group function as potent repressors in mammalian cells.

(Bunker and Kingston, 1994)

Psc is one of several Pc-G genes required for the repression of gap genes by maternally supplied hb product.

(Pelegri and Lehmann, 1994)

Psc is not essential for normal bristle differentiation.

(Sharp et al., 1994)

Mutations in Psc generate malformations of the longitudinal tracts.

(Jacobs, 1993)

Psc binds polytene chromosomes at 45 locations where other Pc-group proteins, encoded by the Pc and ph-d/ph-p genes, are present.

(Martin and Adler, 1993)

Molecular analysis revealed similarity to the murine oncogene bmi-1.

(Martin and Adler, 1993)

Maternal rescue explains the lack of a segmental transformation mutant phenotype in embryos.

(Martin and Adler, 1993)

Psc and Su(z)2 gene products are nuclear proteins and are associated with more than 80 sites in the salivary gland polytene chromosomes. There is considerable overlap with the sites that are bound by antibodies to z, Pc and the ph-d/ph-p proteins.

(Rastelli et al., 1993)

The association of the Psc and Su(z)2 proteins with the chromosomes is dependent on the presence of active E(z) protein.

(Rastelli et al., 1993)

The bithorax complex genes are regulated by the Pc group of genes, acting via 'Pc group response elements' (PREs), that can work even when removed from the normal the bithorax complex context. The Pc group products apparently provide stable memory or imprinting of boundaries which are specified by gap and pair-rule regulators.

(Simon et al., 1993)

A member of the Polycomb group of genes. May be considered a negative regulator of the BXC or the ANTC.

(Lindsley and Zimm, 1992)

The mutant is homo- and hemizygous lethal, the embryos showing partial transformation of head and thorax into abdomen and of abdominal segments 1-7 into more posterior ones. Psc¹/Psc¹ embryos that are also homozygous for Asx¹, Pcl¹, or Scm¹ show stronger posteriorly-directed transformations; Psc¹/+ males may have sex combs on second and third legs. Viability reduced in transheterozygotes in some Psc¹/Su(z)2 combinations, lethal in others.

(Lindsley and Zimm, 1992)

Embryos mutant for two or more Pc-group genes (Pc, Scm, Pcl, Psc, Asx, E(Pc), E(z), ph-d, pho and esc) show strong ectopic en expression, but only weak derepression occurs if embryo is mutant at only one of the Pc group genes.

(Moazed and O'Farrell, 1992)

Mutations of genes in the polycomb group (esc, E(z), Pc, ph-p, ph-d, Mutations of genes in the polycomb group (esc, E(z), Pc, ph-p, ph-d, Scm, Pcl, Sce, Asx, Psc, pho and Antp) cause abnormal segmental development due to the ectopic expression of abd-A and Abd-B.

(Simon et al., 1992)

Aberrant Psc gene expression results in abnormal bristle development.

(Brunk et al., 1991)

The Pc group genes are negative regulators of homeotic genes and have pleiotropic effects on development.

(McKeon and Brock, 1991)

Identification: Isolated from a genomic library using a mouse bmi-1 cDNA as a probe.

(van Lohuizen et al., 1991)

Involved in the suppression of the z¹ eye colour and associated with homeotic transformations.

(Wu et al., 1989)

Dominantly suppresses the yellow eye colour of z¹ flies.

(Wu et al., 1989)

The triple mutant Psc¹ Asx¹ Pcl¹ has a tandem array of posterior abdominal segments including four abdominal denticle bands in the head region.
