Structured_description Provisional_description cul-5 encodes a cullin, orthologous to vasopressin-activated calcium-mobilizing receptor-1 in mammals, that is thought to regulate the cell cycle by virtue of its paralogy to cul-1 and cul-2; however, CUL-5 is dispensable for viability and gross morphology in mass RNAi screens, and does not appear to interact with any of 17 Skp1-related proteins (SKR-1 through SKR-21).

Cullins fall into three families represented today by C. elegans genes CUL-1/2, CUL-3/4, and CUL-5, respectively.
The first two protein groups underwent further duplication and divergence prior to the divergence of nematodes and vertebrates, so that five cullin families exist in worms and humans (orthologous to CUL-1 through CUL-5).
