CC -!- FUNCTION: Required for activity of the M3 pharyngeal motor neuron.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|RuleBase:RU000682,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: In the anterior pharynx, expressed in the I3
CC interneuron, the NSM and M3 motor neuron pairs, the three m2 muscle
CC cells and the three e2 epithelial cells (at protein level).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Earliest expression is detected in late
CC gastrulation (at protein level). Expression is strongest in elongated
CC embryos and early larvae. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mutants lacking the homeobox domain are viable
CC and fertile but proliferate slightly more slowly than wild-type due to
CC retarded larval development and reduced brood size. About 20% appear
CC starved as they are shorter, thinner and paler at all stages with
CC severely affected adults bearing only a few eggs. M3 neuron activity is
CC decreased. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Can substitute for ems in D.melanogaster ems mutants,
CC partially rescuing the mutant phenotype. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12810585}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the EMX homeobox family. {ECO:0000255}.
