General Information | Comment | Organism |

malfunction | three different heterozygous mutations in the Punch gene enhance the gmr-Dube3a rough eye phenotype causing a glazed appearance, loss of inter-ommatidial bristles and often displaying yellowish discoloration indicative of underlying neurodegeneration. In the heterozygous state these mutations in Punch show no eye phenotype when crossed to the gmr-GAL4 driver alone and the individual UAS-Dube3a stocks without gmr-GAL4 do not have rough eyes | Drosophila melanogaster |

metabolism | the Punch protein, an enzyme that produces tetrahydrobiopterin, is the rate-limiting co-factor in monoamine synthesis. Dube3a, the fly UBE3A orthologue, regulates Punch/GCH1 in the fly brain. Drosophila Ube3a regulates monoamine synthesis by increasing GTP cyclohydrolase I activity via a non-ubiquitin ligase mechanism, overview | Drosophila melanogaster |

physiological function | Dube3a, the fly UBE3A orthologue, positively regulates Punch/GCH1 in the fly brain. GCH1 is a UBE3A target involved in neurotransmitter regulation and has broad implications for how the function of this target may contribute to the pathogenesis of Angelman syndrome, duplication 15q autism as well as idiopathic autism linked to UBE3A regulated pathways | Drosophila melanogaster |
