NF-kappa-B inhibitor cactus

Gene

cact

Organism
Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Status
Reviewed-Annotation score: Annotation score: 5 out of 5-Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Functioni

Involved in the formation of the dorsoventral pattern. It inhibits nuclear translocation of the dorsal morphogen in the dorsal region of the embryo. Acts as a negative regulator of the NF-kappa-B (rel) signaling pathway. Cact is degraded by ird5, this is essential for NF-kappa-B (rel) activation.4 Publications

Expressioni

Tissue specificityi

Expressed in ovary (at protein level).

Developmental stagei

Expressed during embryogenesis (at protein level). Isoform A is expressed in ovaries and 0-1 hour embryos. After 2-3 hours unphosphorylated zygotic protein is expressed. Between 4-8 hours phosphorylated zygotic protein is expressed. After 12 hours the amount of unphosphorylated zygotic protein increases until, by the end of embryogenesis, it is the most abundant form of cactus.1 Publication

Interactioni

Subunit structurei

Phosphorylated isoform A binds to dorsal (dl); inhibits dl translocation to the nucleus and therefore from binding to DNA. In vitro, interacts with ird5. Interacts with cactin and kappa-B-Ras.4 Publications
