Name
Chromosome-Segregation and RNAi deficient 1
Synonyms
  • CELE_F20D12.1
  • F20D12.1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables endoribonuclease activity, cleaving siRNA-paired mRNA. Involved in P granule assembly; mitotic sister chromatid segregation; and siRNA-mediated gene silencing by mRNA destabilization. Located in P granule; condensed nuclear chromosome; and metaphase plate. Is expressed in several structures, including germ line; somatic cell; sperm; spermatid; and spermatocyte.
WB Description
csr-1 encodes, by alternative splicing, two isoforms of an Argonaute protein required for chromosome segregation, embryonic viability, Slicer activity induced by secondary siRNAs, and (partially) for germline RNAi; csr-1(RNAi) embryos are generally inviable, with disordered metaphase chromosomes and anaphase DNA bridges; CSR-1 is found in secondary-type siRNA/Slicer complexes, and isolated recombinant CSR-1 itself shows Slicer activity with secondary-type siRNAs; csr-1(fj54) mutant cell-free extracts have only 10% the normal level of secondary siRNA-induced Slicer activity; csr-1 mutants are partially defective in germline RNAi; CSR-1 belongs to a nematode-specific group of Argonaute homologs, and is most closely related to C04F12.1; like ALG-1/2 and RDE-1, but unlike some other Argonaute homologs, CSR-1 retains key catalytic residues in an RNAse H domain.
