Structured_description Provisional_description The lin-41 gene encodes a novel RBCC (Ring finger-B box-Coiled coil) protein that is a member of the NHL (NCL-1, HT2A, and LIN-41) family of proteins and is required for the proper temporal control of specific postembryonic cell fates; lin-41 translation is negatively regulated during L4 and adult stages by let-7, a small temporally regulated RNA (stRNA) that is complementary to two sites in the lin-41 3'UTR; LIN-41 is a widely expressed cytoplasmic protein and negatively regulates post-transcriptional expression of LIN-29, a transcription factor required for adult cell fates.

The leptoderan alleles lin-41(bx37) and lin-41(bx42) specifically affect development of the male tail; they cause no defects in the development of alae or in hermaphrodites.
These two alleles were originally considered to define a new gene (lep-1); they were identified in a screen for mutants with atavistic male tail morphological defects.
