Structured_description Provisional_description (9)
Concise_description The clk-2 gene encodes an ortholog of the S. cerevisiae telomere length-regulating protein Tel2p that has been shown to bind a number of DNA structures in vitro, including single-, double- and four-stranded DNA; in C. elegans, CLK-2 activity is required for the DNA damage and S phase replication checkpoints, for embryonic development, and for normal biological rhythms and life span; a functional CLK-2::GFP fusion protein is detected exclusively in the cytoplasm of somatic tissues.
The clk-2 gene encodes an ortholog of the telomere length-regulating protein Tel2p from S. cerevisiae; clk-2 mutations extend lifespan, indicating that CLK-2 positively mediates some aspect of normal aging.
