WB Description
ceh-82 is a divergent homeobox gene that encodes two homeodomains; most homeodomain proteins bind DNA and function as transcription factors; ceh-82 is located in a repetitive area on chromosome II, where also several other divergent homeobox genes are found; ceh-82 is expressed in the pharynx, nervous system, tail, and the anal region.
