glial cells missing homolog 1 (Drosophila) pseudogene

glial cells missing homolog 1 (Drosophila)

This gene encodes a DNA-binding protein with a gcm-motif (glial cell missing motif). The encoded protein is a homolog of the Drosophila glial cells missing gene (gcm). This protein binds to the GCM-motif (A/G)CCCGCAT, a novel sequence among known targets of DNA-binding proteins. The N-terminal DNA-binding domain confers the unique DNA-binding activity of this protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

glial cells missing homolog 2 (Drosophila)

This gene is a homolog of the Drosophila glial cells missing gene, which is thought to act as a binary switch between neuronal and glial cell determination. The protein encoded by this gene contains a conserved N-terminal GCM motif that has DNA-binding activity. The protein is a transcription factor that acts as a master regulator of parathyroid development. It has been suggested that this transcription factor might mediate the effect of calcium on parathyroid hormone expression and secretion in parathyroid cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypoparathyroidism. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

missing oocyte, meiosis regulator, homolog (Drosophila)

Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Involved in cellular response to amino acid starvation; positive regulation of TORC1 signaling; and protein-containing complex localization. Located in several cellular components, including cytosol; lysosomal membrane; and nucleoplasm. Part of GATOR2 complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
