Component of the GATOR complex consisting of mio, Nup44A/Seh1, Im11, Nplr3, Nplr2, Wdr24, Wdr59 and Sec13 (PubMed:27166823). Within the GATOR complex, probable component of the GATOR2 subcomplex which is likely composed of mio, Nup44A/Seh1, Wdr24, Wdr59 and Sec13 (PubMed:27166823). Interacts with Wdr24 (PubMed:27166823). Interacts with nucleoporin Nup44A/Seh1 (PubMed:21521741). The GATOR2 complex associates with unmet in the absence of S-adenosyl-L-methionine; the mio-Wdr24-Nup44A subcomplex is essential and sufficient for this interaction while Wdr59 and Sec13 are dispensable (PubMed:38514639). This association acts as a nutrient sensor to inhibit mTORC1 signaling in the absence of methionine (PubMed:38514639).
The WD repeats are important for recruitment of the methionine nutrient sensor unmet.

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).
mio protein localizes to the nuclei of oocytes early in prophase of meiosis I.

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.
polyclonal
mio is required for the maintenance of the meiotic cycle during oogenesis, and for oocyte differentiation.
Homozygous females are sterile. All 16 cells in the germline cyst develop as polyploid nurse cells. An oocyte is specified and enters meiosis in these flies, but meiosis is not maintained and the oocyte eventually enters the endocycle and develops with the characteristics of a nurse cell. Microtubule-based transport is not grossly abnormal.
