Names and origin

Protein namesRecommended name:
Probable ATP-dependent RNA helicase pitchoune
EC=3.6.4.13
Gene names
Name:pit
ORF Names:CG6375
OrganismDrosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Taxonomic identifier7227 [NCBI]
Taxonomic lineageEukaryota › Metazoa › Arthropoda › Hexapoda › Insecta › Pterygota › Neoptera › Endopterygota › Diptera › Brachycera › Muscomorpha › Ephydroidea › Drosophilidae › Drosophila › Sophophora

Protein attributes

Sequence length680 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Probable RNA-dependent helicase. Functions in cell growth and proliferation. May have a role in ribosome biogenesis and, consequently, in protein biosynthesis. Ref.1

Catalytic activity

ATP + H2O = ADP + phosphate.

Subcellular location

Nucleus › nucleolus Ref.1.

Miscellaneous

Mutation in the pit gene produce larvae that cannot grow beyond the first instar larval stage although they can live as long as 7-10 days. All the tissues are equally affected and the perfectly shaped larvae are indistinguishable from first instar wild-type animals.

'Pitchoune' means 'small' in Provence (Southern part of France).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX18/HAS1 subfamily.

Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.

Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAC27683.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 3.
