DUF4206 domain-containing protein.

Autophagy-related protein 18; Component of the autophagy machinery that is recruited to phosphatidylinositols on preautophagosomal structures, which are early autophagic structures, to promote autophagosome formation, and the subsequent degradation and clearance of engulfed apoptotic cells and P- granules in somatic cells. In particular, binds with high affinity to phosphatidylinositols including phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P), and phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate (PtdIns(5)P), and more weakly to phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bis [...]

DUF4206 domain-containing protein.

Protein lgg-1; Ubiquitin-like modifier involved in the formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes). When lipidated mediates tethering between adjacent membranes and stimulates membrane fusion during autophagy. Recruits lipidated-lgg-2 to maturing autophagosomes. Acts in the aggrephagy pathway, which is the macroautophagic degradation of ubiquitinated protein aggregates, and preferentially interacts with autophagy proteins and substrates containing LIR motifs to mediate autophagosome formation and protein aggregate degradation. In particular, binds to components of the unc-51- [...]

DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit RPB1; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Largest and catalytic component of RNA polymerase II which synthesizes mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs. Forms the polymerase active center together with the second largest subunit. Pol II is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. It is composed of mobile elements that move relative to each other. RPB1 is part of the core element with the central large cl [...]

Autophagy-related protein 5; Involved in autophagic vesicle formation (By similarity). Conjugation with lgg-3/ATG12, through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving atg-7 as an E1-like activating enzyme and atg-10 as an E2-like conjugating enzyme, is essential for its function (By similarity). Most likely a component of an atg-5-lgg-3-atg-16 complex that promotes autophagosome formation by associating with lgg-2, but not lgg-1, at the preautophagosomal membrane. Probably, as part of an atg-5-lgg-3-atg-16 complex, required for lgg-1 lipidation; the complex acts as an E3-like enzym [...]

Cell division control protein 42 homolog; Plays an essential role in spindle orientation and organizing cellular and embryonic polarity by controlling the localization and activity of PAR (partitioning-defective) proteins. Required for maintaining the asymmetric cortical localization of the anterior complex proteins par-3 and par-6, the posterior cortical protein par-2, and pkc-3. Involved in hypodermal cell fusion, together with pak-1 and ced-10, leading to embryonic body elongation, which involves dramatic cytoskeletal reorganization. During gonad morphogenesis, plays a role in dista [...]

Cuticle collagen rol-6; Nematode cuticles are composed largely of collagen-like proteins. The cuticle functions both as an exoskeleton and as a barrier to protect the worm from its environment. Involved in body morphogenesis.

ACTin.

Systemic RNA interference defective protein 1; Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by acting cell- autonomously as a channel for the transport of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) between cells. Mediates the spread of dsRNA and subsequent silencing of genes in cells distant from the site of dsRNA introduction. Selective for dsRNA. Preferentially binds long dsRNA, from 50 base pairs up to 700. Short 20 base-pair long molecules are not bound. May also bind dsDNA, but with lower affinity. Binding may be sequence-independent. Belongs to the SID1 family.
