Protein: Embryonic polarity protein dorsal (P15330)
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Embryonic developmental protein. The lateral or ventral identity of a cell depends upon the concentration of this protein in its nucleus during the blastoderm stage. A morphogenetic protein that specifically binds to the kappa B-related consensus sequence 5'-GRGAAAANCC-3', located in the enhancer region of zygotic genes such as Zen, Twist, Snail and Decapentaplegic. Mediates an immune response in larvae. Part of a signaling pathway involving NF-kappa-B and Toll-related receptors, that functions in the apoptosis of unfit cells during cell competition. May be part of a NF-kappa-B and Tollo signaling cascade that regulates development of the peripheral nervous system.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14638854, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17032737, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2598266}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14638854, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17032737, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2598266}. Note=In ventral regions it is first cytoplasmic, then the protein is relocalized in the nucleus (PubMed:2598266). Its nuclear localization is essential to its function as a morphogen (PubMed:2598266). In dorsal regions it remains cytoplasmic (PubMed:2598266). Tamo negatively regulates nuclear import of dl (PubMed:12653959). Emb is responsible for export of dl from the nucleus (PubMed:14638854). Nuclear localization is enhanced upon microbial infection (PubMed:17032737). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12653959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14638854, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17032737, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2598266}.; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Isoform A]: Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
