Predicted to enable guanylate cyclase activity and peptide receptor activity. Involved in chemosensory behavior; chemotaxis; and response to salt. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in ASER.
WB Description
gcy-4 encodes a transmembrane guanylyl cyclase; gcy-4 mutant animals show chemotaxis defects exclusively on gradients of bromide and iodide; gcy-4 is expressed in the right ASE chemosensory neuron, ASER.
