Protein lin-25; Participates in the inductive signaling pathway downstream of let-60 Ras and the RAF/MAP kinase cascade to regulate specification and differentiation of many cell types. Positively regulates the fate of vulval precursor cells. Required for induction of the P12 and excretory duct cell fates. In males, it is also required for proper formation of spicules. Does not function in the signaling pathway that promotes exit from pachytene. Plays a role in responses to M.nematophilum-mediated bacterial infection by promoting tail swelling and preventing constipation.

Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 23; Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in regulated gene transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene- specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional pre-initiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors (By similarity). Functi [...]

ETS domain-containing protein.

Anion exchange protein.

Sex muscle abnormal protein 5; Adapter protein which modulates signaling mediated by several receptor tyrosine kinases such as egl-15 and let-23 probably acting upstream of let-60/ras. Negatively regulates vulva induction probably downstream of let-23. Involved in sex myoblast migration. Negatively regulates fluid homeostasis probably downstream of egl-15. During the formation of neuromuscular junctions at the larval stage, negatively regulates membrane protrusion from body wall muscles probably downstream of egl- 15. Involved in cytoskeleton dynamics and is recruited by mig-13 to the [...]

Kinase suppressor of Ras A; Serine/threonine-protein kinase which positively regulates Ras-mediated signaling probably acting at the level of let-60/ras or/and lin-45/raf. Involved in sex myoblast migration. Plays a role in responses to M.nematophilum-mediated bacterial infection by promoting tail swelling and preventing constipation. Functions redundantly with ksr-2 in the Ras-mediated regulation of larval survival, the development of excretory canal and in mpk-1 phosphorylation in somatic cells. In addition, involved in determining vulval precursor cell fate during vulval induction i [...]

Raf homolog serine/threonine-protein kinase; Protein kinase that participates in the induction of vulva and has roles in fertility and viability. Acts downstream of the Ras protein let-60. Required for progression of developing oocytes through the pachytene stage. Plays a role in responses to M.nematophilum- mediated bacterial infection by promoting tail swelling and preventing constipation. Positively regulates lifespan upstream of mek-2 and mpk-1. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. RAF subfamily.

Son of sevenless homolog; Promotes the exchange of Ras-bound GDP by GTP (By similarity). May regulate signaling pathways downstream of receptor tyrosine kinase, egl-15 and let-23. Required for larval and male spicule development, fluid homeostasis, vulva induction, spermatogenesis, and oogenesis by promoting meiosis prophase exit during oocyte maturation. Required for the delamination of G1 cell by promoting the loss of cell junctions and detachment from the excretory system during larval development. Plays a role in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR)-mediated sensitivity to nico [...]
