Name
LEThal 60
Synonyms
  • CELE_ZK792.6
  • lin-34
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables GTP binding activity; phospholipase binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including learning or memory; positive regulation of receptor localization to synapse; and positive regulation of vulval development. Located in cell cortex. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; head neurons; pharyngeal cell; vulval cell; and vulval precursor cell. Used to study RASopathy and cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Noonan syndrome (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and high grade glioma (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including HRAS (HRas proto-oncogene, GTPase).
WB Description
let-60 encodes a member of the GTP-binding RAS protooncogene family; let-60 activity is required for viability, vulval development, spicule development, germ line meiotic progression, posterior development of the hypodermis, chemotaxis, sex myoblast migration, and muscle membrane extension; let-60 acts genetically downstream of let-23 with respect to vulval development and upstream of the MAPK pathway with respect to chemotaxis; let-60 is expressed in neural, muscle, and hypodermal lineages.
