Mannosyltransferase.

C-mannosyltransferase dpy-19; C-mannosyltransferase that mediates C-mannosylation of tryptophan residues on target proteins such as unc-5 and mig-21. Mediates the attachment of alpha-mannose in C-C linkage to the C2 of the indole ring of tryptophan. C-mannosylation takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum and frequently found in thrombospondin (TSP) type-1 repeats and in the WSXWS motif of type I cytokine receptors. Required to orient neuroblasts QL and QR correctly on the anterior/posterior (A/P) axis: QL and QR are born in the same A/P position, but polarize and migrate left/right as [...]

Cadherin-4; Potential calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein that controls axon guidance in the ventral cord.

Abnormal cell migration protein 13; Probable receptor that acts as an upstream signaling protein to promote the guidance, migration and positioning of the right Q neuroblast (QR) and its descendants along the anteroposterior body axis, and also the anterior migration of BDU interneurons during larval development. Associates with and recruits the downstream components tyrosine kinase abl-1 and the tyrosine kinase adapter protein sem-5 to the leading edge of migrating Q neuroblasts and their descendants to activate signaling through the two parallel wve-1 and wsp-1 pathways, respectively [...]

Cadherin-4; Potential calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein that controls axon guidance in the ventral cord.

Abnormal cell migration protein 21; Required for determination of left/right asymmetry in nervous system. Acts together with unc-40 to control an initial left-right asymmetric polarization of the Q neuroblasts. Mig-21 and unc-40 may control the asymmetry in Wnt signaling response by restricting posterior polarization to one of the 2 Q neuroblasts. Involved in left- side QL posterior migration. In right-side QR, unc-40 and mig-21 pathways mutually inhibit each other in posterior migration, allowing anterior QR migration.

Ephrin receptor 1; Receptor for members of the ephrin family (By similarity).

By inactivating daf-18, regulates [...]
