| General Information | Comment | Organism |
|---|---|---|
| malfunction | knockdown of G9a or SETDB1 throughout development with an ACT5C-GAL4 driver produces organism- level defects only in the case of dSETDB1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
| physiological function | SETDB1 acts to maintain heterochromatin during metamorphosis, at a later stage in development than the reported action of SU(VAR)3-9, depletion of both of these enzymes has less deleterious effect than depletion of one, SETDB1 acts as a heterochromatin maintenance factor that may be required for the persistence of earlier developmental events normally governed by SU(VAR)3-9 | Drosophila melanogaster |
