{Summary}
Function/Pathway
{Function/Pathway}
  • may target Ci for ubiquitination and hence for cleavage by the proteasome pathway
  • S: proteasome inhibitors block the processing of Ci in tissue culture cells
Genetic interactions
  • Slimb is downstream of PKA activity with regards to Ci processing (Wang, 1999)
  • Ci is more active in PKA clones than in slimb clones (Wang, 1999)

Protein Modifications and Regulation

Related to
  • homologous to S. cerevisiae cdc4 (required for the ubiquitination of cell cycle regulators
Mutations
  • Loss of slmb results in a cell autonomous accumulation of high levels of both Ci and Arm (Jiang, 1998) and the ectopic expression of both Hh-and Wg-responsive genes (Jiang, 1998, Theodosiou, 1998)
  • Slmb1 acts like a hypomorph and slmb2 and slmbP1493 seem to eliminate most or all gene fxn
  • Slimb mutant cells express dpplacZ at low levels and no ptclacZ or en (Wang, 1999)
  • Ectopic dpplacZ expression is likely due to derepression of dpp, as formation of Ci-75, dpp’s repressor, is blocked in slimb clones (Wang, 1999)
  • Slmb-, smo- double mutant clones almost completely suppresses slmb induced outgrowths. Therefore slmb acts upstream of smo (Theodosiou, 1998).
