Structured_description
| Provisional_description | asg-1 encodes a homolog of the proton-translocating F0 ATP synthase complex subunit g; by homology, ASG-1 is predicted to function in ATP synthesis, although its precise role in ATP anabolism is not yet known; in C. elegans, asg-1 activity is required for transposon silencing in the germline, suggesting that healthy energy metabolism is necessary for this process; in addition, large-scale RNAi screens indicate that asg-1 activity is required for embryonic and germline development, normal post-embryonic growth rates, and normal body morphology. |
