Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Acts upstream of or within nematode male tail mating organ morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular matrix. Is expressed in rect_D; rect_VL; and rect_VR.
WB Description
grd-1 encodes a hedgehog-like protein, with (from N- to C-terminus) asignal sequence, a Ground domain, an extended region of low-complexitysequence, and a Hint/Hog domain; GRD-1 is expressed in rectal cells; theHint/Hog domain is predicted to cut GRD-1 into two halves and thencovalently link cholesterol to the C-terminus of the Ground domain; theGround domain is predicted to form a cysteine-crosslinked proteininvolved in intercellular signalling, and it has subtle similarity tothe N-terminal Hedge domain of HEDGEHOG proteins; GRD-1 is weaklyrequired for normal molting; GRD-1 is also required for normal growth tofull size, cuticle adhesion, and male tail development; all of theserequirements may reflect common defects in cholesterol-dependenthedgehog-like signalling or in vesicle trafficking.
