Gene Summary
draper (drpr) encodes a single-pass transmembrane receptor that is involved in phagocytosis by glia, macrophages, and epithelia. It signals downstream through the proteins encoded by Src42A and Shark to promote Rac1 function and transcriptional changes through the products of Jra and Stat92E. It is also required for activation of autophagy in salivary glands. [Date last reviewed: 2019-03-21] (FlyBase Gene Snapshot)

Gene Group (FlyBase)
NIMROD-TYPE RECEPTORS -
The Nimrod family of genes is characterised by the presence of NIM repeats, closely related to the EGF-repeat. They encode proteins which are secreted or integral to the plasma membrane. The Nimrod genes have been linked to the innate immune response and some members of this family have been shown to act as receptors for bacterial or apoptic cell phagocytosis. (Adapted from FBrf0212245).
Protein Function (UniProtKB)
Receptor which is involved in the phagocytosis of a variety of cells including apoptotic cells, severed and pruned axons, degenerating dendrites, salivary gland cells, germline cells and bacteria (PubMed:15342648, PubMed:16772168, PubMed:16772169, PubMed:18984163, PubMed:20577216, PubMed:22992958, PubMed:24412417). Binds to the ligand prtp which relocates from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell surface during apoptosis (PubMed:19927123, PubMed:23337816). Ligand-binding may promote tyrosine phosphorylation mediated by Src42a, interaction with shark and subsequent activation of phagocytosis (PubMed:18432193). Also binds to the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylserine which is exposed on the surface of apoptotic cells (PubMed:23420848). Required for the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by macrophages (PubMed:15342648). Also required for the phagocytosis of apoptotic neurons by glial cells in the embryonic nervous system (PubMed:12765609). Acts downstream of NimC4/simu in the glial phagocytosis of apoptotic neurons (PubMed:18455990). Plays a role in the glial engulfment of larval axons as part of programmed axon pruning during metamorphosis (PubMed:16772168, PubMed:16772170). Also mediates glial cell clearance of severed axons following axonal injury (PubMed:16772169, PubMed:27498858). Required for the engulfment of degenerating dendrites by epidermal cells (PubMed:24412417). Required in the ovary for the engulfment and subsequent processing of dying germline cells by follicular epithelial cells through activation of the JNK/bsk pathway (PubMed:22992958, PubMed:27347682). Plays a role in neuromuscular junction development by mediating the clearance of presynaptic debris and immature boutons which are shed by growing synapses (PubMed:19707574). Required for larval salivary gland cell death which occurs following a rise in steroid levels after puparium formation (PubMed:20577216). Also involved in bacterial phagocytosis (PubMed:18984163). Required for hemocyte phagocytosis of the Gram-positive bacterium S.aureus (PubMed:19890048). Lipoteichoic acid, synthesized by the S.aureus lipoteichoic acid synthase ltaS, acts as a ligand for drpr in this process (PubMed:19890048). Together with Src42a and shark, promotes the migration of macrophages to sites of wounding as part of a signaling cascade where Scr42a detects production of hydrogen peroxide at wound sites which triggers phosphorylation of drpr and subsequent recruitment and activation of shark (PubMed:26028435). Also required for macrophage priming which occurs following phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and ensures that macrophages develop a form of molecular memory that allows them to later mount an inflammatory response to tissue damage and bacterial infection (PubMed:27212238). Is also an essential factor in the regulation of muscle development and myogenesis, and as a consequence is required for normal locomotion (PubMed:12765609, PubMed:25111228, Ref.27). Likely to control the balance between skeletal muscle satellite cells proliferation and differentiation through regulation of the notch signaling pathway (PubMed:25111228, PubMed:30802937, Ref.27).

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

Subunit Structure (UniProtKB)

Interacts (via the cytoplasmic domain) with shark; this is required for the recruitment of drpr and glial cells to severed axons and for the phagocytosis of axonal debris by glial cells following axon injury (PubMed:18432193). Interacts with ced-6 (PubMed:16772168).

(UniProt, Q9W0A0)
Post Translational Modification

Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues (PubMed:18432193, PubMed:19927123, PubMed:23337816, PubMed:23420848). Phosphorylation is induced by binding to prtp (PubMed:19927123). It is also induced by binding to the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PubMed:23420848). Phosphorylation may be mediated directly or indirectly by Src42a and is required for interaction with shark (PubMed:18432193).

(UniProt, Q9W0A0)
Domain

Isoform B: The intracellular domain is required for glial engulfment activity. Isoform A: The intracellular domain contains an 11-residue insertion compared to isoform B and is incapable of promoting glial engulfment.

Additional Descriptive Data

drpr protein was detected on the membranes of cyst cells that encapsulate spermatogonia. drpr-labeled protrusions extending from cyst cells into dying germ cells were observed.

Naive stage 11 macrophages have low levels of drpr transcripts and protein that increase after corpse uptake.

drpr protein is expressed in the follicle cells of dying egg chambers. drpr protein levels increase in follicle cells as engulfment of nurse cells by follicle cells in dying egg chambers proceeds.

Some drpr isoforms are present at low levels in salivary glands and localize to the luminal/apical region at 6h APF. Following the rise in steroid levels that triggers cell death at 12h APF, drpr levels increase and remain high up to 14h APF, when some of the drpr changes from an apical to a cytoplasmic localization.

drpr protein is detected in a subset of glial cells that surround the distal tip of the mushroom body vertical lobes. These cells also express ced-6 protein. Expression in also detected in glial processes that infiltrate the vertical lobes.

Subunit Structure (UniProtKB)
Interacts (via the cytoplasmic domain) with shark; this is required for the recruitment of drpr and glial cells to severed axons and for the phagocytosis of axonal debris by glial cells following axon injury (PubMed:18432193). Interacts with ced-6 (PubMed:16772168).

      Isoform I of drpr, but not isoforms II or III, is sufficient for glial phagocytic engulfment of degenerating axons in the adult brain.

      The drpr-II isoform inhibits glial phagocytic engulfment of degenerating axons through an ITIM-like domain.

      drp is required for degradation of apoptotic cells after they have been engulfed during apoptotic cell clearance by glia in the nervous system and macrophages elsewhere.

      drpr is needed in wild-type cells for the death of Minute neighbours in cell competition experiments.

      In drpr mutants glia fail to respond morphologically to axon injury, and severed axons are not cleared from the CNS.

      drpr is involved in the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by hemocytes/macrophages.

      Identification: by computational analysis looking for genes flanking gcm binding sites.
