lin-12 | Protein lin-12; Involved in several cell fate decisions that require cell- cell interactions. It is possible that lin-12 encodes a membrane-bound receptor for a signal that enables expression of the ventral uterine precursor cell fate. Activity in cell fate decisions and tumorigenesis is negatively regulated by sel-10. Functions in uterine cells to promote basement membrane mobility during tissue remodeling. (1429 aa) | ||||
fln-2 | FiLamiN (Actin binding protein) homolog. (3672 aa) | ||||
lmn-1 | Lamin-1; Major component of the nuclear lamina, a fibrous layer on the nucleoplasmic side of the inner nuclear membrane. Provides a framework for the nuclear envelope and probably also interacts with chromatin. Essential to maintain the shape and integrity of the nucleus, and for DNA replication. Involved in spatial organization of nuclear pore complexes. It is not a target for ced-3 during apoptosis, suggesting that lamin cleavage is not essential for apoptosis in C.elegans. Belongs to the intermediate filament family. (566 aa) | ||||
sel-12 | Presenilin sel-12; Probable catalytic subunit of the gamma-secretase complex, an endoprotease complex that catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of integral membrane proteins such as Notch receptors (lin-12 or glp-1). Provides the major presenilin function compared to hop-1 and spe-4. Required cell-autonomously for correct neurite connectivity of the AIY cholinergic interneurons and their correct functioning in thermotaxis. Required for mesodermal patterning of muscle function. Promotes basement membrane gap formation during tissue remodeling ; Belongs to the peptidase A22A family. (444 aa) | ||||
crt-1 | Calreticulin; Molecular calcium-binding chaperone promoting folding, oligomeric assembly and quality control in the ER via the calreticulin/calnexin cycle (By similarity). This lectin may interact transiently with almost all of the monoglucosylated glycoproteins that are synthesized in the ER (By similarity). Probably by controlling the folding of extracellular matrix protein unc-52/Perlecan, may play a role in the formation of fibrous organelles, a hemidesmosome-like structure attaching muscles to the epidermis. Protects dopaminergic neurons against oxidative stress-induced neurodegen [...] (395 aa) | ||||
fln-1 | Calponin-homology (CH) domain-containing protein. (2259 aa) |
