Phenotype [Mains PE] ct61sb4 is a recessive maternal-effect lethal.
[C.elegansII] ct61dm,ts : dominant maternal effect lethal, at 25C most embryos from ct61/+ mothers have early cleavage defects, arrest prior to morphogenesis; at 15C impenetrant maternal effect Vab. More severe defects in progeny from homozygous mothers.OA1: revertant ct61sb4 is a recessive maternal-effect lethal. [Mains et al. 1990; HR]
[Bowerman BA] temperature-sensitive embryonic lethal, permissive = 15 C, restrictive = 25 C.

Structured_description Provisional_descriptionmel-26 encodes a MATH and BTB/POZ domain-containing protein that functions as a novel substrate-specific adaptor of the CUL-3-containing E3 ubiquitin ligase; MEL-26 is required maternally for formation of mitotic spindles in the early embryo, and as a component of a ubiquitin ligase complex, for degradation of the microtubule-severing protein MEI-1 at the meiosis to mitosis transition; MEL-26 is also required maternally for embryonic morphogenesis; since MEL-26 contains a meprin-associated Traf homology (MATH) domain, it might be involved in apoptosis.
