defective in Germ Line Development 4
Synonyms
  • CELE_ZK858.1

Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables poly(A) RNA polymerase activity. Involved in cytosolic mRNA polyadenylation and positive regulation of meiotic cell cycle. Located in P granule. Is expressed in Z2; Z3; and germ line. Orthologous to human TENT4A (terminal nucleotidyltransferase 4A) and TENT4B (terminal nucleotidyltransferase 4B).
WB Description
gld-4 encodes a noncanonical poly(A) polymerase orthologous to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Trf4/5p; GLD-4 activity is required for early meiotic progression of male and female gametes in the absence of GLD-2 and for regulation of gld-1 mRNA levels; GLD-4 physically interacts with GLS-1 which stimulates GLD-4 poly(A) polymerase activity in vivo; GLD-4 is expressed predominantly in germ cells and localizes to the cytoplasm and to P granules.
