Gene Summary
archipelago (ago) encodes a protein that is the founding member of the Ago/Fbxw7 family of tumor suppressor genes and the substrate adaptor component of the SCF-Ago ubiquitin ligase. The product of ago has various substrates including the bHLH transcription factors encoded by Myc, trh, and sima, and the G1 cell cycle kinase component encoded by CycE. The product of ago presents tissue specific roles in cell proliferation, survival, and hypoxia-induced gene expression. [Date last reviewed: 2019-03-07] (FlyBase Gene Snapshot)

Gene Group (FlyBase)
F BOX AND WD DOMAIN PROTEINS -
F box and WD domain (FBXW) proteins are F box proteins which contain WD40 repeats. F box proteins are the variable substrate adapters for Skp, Cullin, F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes. (Adapted from FBrf0225076).
Protein Function (UniProtKB)
Substrate recognition component of a SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins (By similarity). Probably recognizes and binds to phosphorylated target proteins (By similarity). In the wing and eye, negatively regulates cell growth and proliferation by mediating the degradation of Myc and cyclin E, respectively (PubMed:11565033, PubMed:15182669). Required for endocycles, but not mitosis in follicle cell epithelium (PubMed:15175253).
(UniProt, Q9VZF4)
Summary (Interactive Fly)

F box component of an SCF-ubiquitin ligase - negatively regulates the levels and activity of Drosophila Myc by linking Myc to a protein degradation pathway - negatively regulates Cyclin E and Notch - regulates cell proliferation, survival, and hypoxia-induced gene expression

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.

Testis-specificity index

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).

Additional Descriptive Data

The ventrolateral body wall muscle 12 (VLM12) expresses endogenous, nuclear ago protein.

A strong pulse of nuclear ago protein is seen in the area of the morphogenetic furrow (MF) and are subsequently refined into a restricted pattern in the first few rows of cells posterior to the MF. ago becomes restricted to a single cell nucleus that occupies an anterior location within the nascent elav-positive cluster.

ago is widely expressed during most of embryogenesis and is concentrated in the nervous system at later stages.

      ago acts an antagonist of the physiological response to hypoxia. ago protein physically associates with sima protein and restricts sima protein levels in vivo. Reducing ago activity in larval muscle cells elicits enhanced branching of nearby tracheal cells in normoxia.

      dsRNA has been made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene.

      Mutants in ago show increased tissue growth.

      dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R+ cell morphology.

      Area matching Drosophila EST AA392932 (inverted).

      ago is involved in developmental regulation of CycE degradation.

      Clones of mutant cells in the eye disc result in cell fate changes and overrepresentation of mutant cells in the eye.
