Silencio
chromatin factor - transposon repression - positive regulation of methylation-dependent chromatin silencing - piRNA-guided transcriptional silencing - piRNA binding - forms a protein complex with Nxf2 and Nxt1/p15 that provides the key molecular connection between Piwi, the nascent target RNA, and the cellular heterochromatin machinery

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

There is only one protein coding transcript and one polypeptide associated with this gene
In the ovaries, part of a complex composed of at least Panx, nxf2, piwi and Nxt1 (PubMed:26472911, PubMed:26494711, PubMed:31219034, PubMed:31368590, PubMed:31384064, PubMed:31570835). The complex is knowns as Panx-induced cotranscriptional silencing (PICTS) complex, Panx-nxf2-dependent TAP/p15 silencing (Pandas complex), SFiNX (silencing factor interacting nuclear export variant) or piwi-Panx-nxf2-p15 (PPNP) complex (PubMed:26472911, PubMed:26494711, PubMed:31219034, PubMed:31368590, PubMed:31384064, PubMed:31570835). Interacts (via NIR region) with nxf2 (via TAP-C domain); the interaction is direct (PubMed:31219034, PubMed:31368590, PubMed:31384064, PubMed:31570835).
N-terminal region is necessary and sufficient to enforce silencing of an artificial reporter gene.

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).

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 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.

Named 'Silencio' because of its role in transcriptional silencing.
Named "Panoramix" after the mentor who empowers the French comic book character Asterix to perform his feats of strength (and the 'Asterix' protein functions with 'Panoramix' in the repression of transposon transcription).
