polg-1

Species
Caenorhabditis elegans
Symbol
polg-1
Name
POLG (mitochondrial DNA POLymerase Gamma) 1
Synonyms
  • CELE_Y57A10A.15
  • POLG
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable 3'-5' exonuclease activity and DNA-directed DNA polymerase activity. Involved in several processes, including defecation; determination of adult lifespan; and mitochondrial DNA replication. Predicted to be part of gamma DNA polymerase complex. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (multiple); mitochondrial myopathy (multiple); neurodegenerative disease (multiple); ovarian disease (multiple); and sensory ataxic neuropathy, dysarthria, and ophthalmoparesis. Orthologous to human POLG (DNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit).
WB Description
polg-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of human mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma (POLG; OMIM:174763); polg-1 is required for normal levels of mitochondrial DNA during development, particularly during germ line development in late larval and adult stages; polg-1 is also required for normal brood sizes and adult lifespan.
