RESUMEN

In vertebrates, three members of the d4 gene family code for proteins, which are believed to function as transcription factors and involved in regulation of various intracellular processes. One member of the family, ubi-d4/requiem is ubiquitously expressed gene and two other, neuro-d4 and cer-d4, are expressed predominantly in the neural tissues (Nucleic Acids Res. 20 (1992) 5579; Biochim. Biophys. Acta 14 (1992) 172; Mamm. Genome 11 (2000) 72; Mamm. Genome 12 (2001) 862). Typically, d4 proteins show distinct domain organisation with domain 2/3 in the N-terminal, Krüppel-type zinc finger in the central and two adjacent PHD-fingers (d4-domain) in the C-terminal part of the molecule. However, alternative splicing, which is responsible for complex expression patterns of both neurospecific members of the family, generates multiple protein isoforms lacking certain domains (Nucleic Acids Res. 20 (1992) 5579; Genomics 36 (1996) 174; Mamm. Genome 11 (2000) 72; Mamm. Genome 12 (2001) 862). Exact function of d4 proteins is unclear but their involvement in regulation of differentiation and apoptotic cell death has been proposed (J. Biol. Chem. 269 (1994) 29515; Mamm. Genome 11 (2000) 72; Mamm. Genome 12 (2001) 862). Here we identified a single gene, dd4, in the genome of Drosophila melanogaster, the protein product of which could be assigned to the d4 family. Expression of dd4 is regulated during Drosophila development, and is most prominent in syncytial embryos and later in the embryonic nervous and reproductive systems. In flies dd4 mRNA is found in most tissues but the highest level of expression is detected in ovaries.
