Gene

pfd-1

Species
Caenorhabditis elegans
Symbol
pfd-1
Name
PreFolDin (molecular chaperone) 1
Synonyms
  • C08F8.1
  • CELE_C08F8.1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable protein folding chaperone and unfolded protein binding activity. Involved in gonad development. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in body wall musculature; excretory cell; intestine; pharynx; and vulval muscle. Orthologous to human PFDN1 (prefoldin subunit 1).
WB Description
pfd-1 encodes a putative prefoldin subunit 1, orthologous to human PFDN1 (OMIM:604897), that is required for normal microtubule nucleation and growth, embryonic viability, distal tip cell (DTC) migration, and locomotion; PFD-1 is expressed cytoplasmically in most, if not all, tissues; pfd-1(RNAi) animals have sterile progeny and are uncoordinated, and pfd-1(RNAi) embryos show a reduced microtubule growth rate; pfd-1(gk526) or escaper pfd-1(RNAi) hermaphrodites exhibit detective DTC migration.
