Structured_description Provisional_description cey-2 encodes a cold-shock/Y-box domain-containing protein; by homology, CEY-2 is predicted to function as either an RNA-binding protein involved in translation or RNA processing, or a DNA-binding protein involved in transcriptional regulation; cey-2 mRNA is expressed maternally in the early embryo, in a pattern characteristic of class II maternal RNAs, which are initially detected throughout the embryo but restricted to the P, or germline, lineage as cell division progresses; as loss of cey-2 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of cey-2 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known.

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
