C08B6.9 Details Help
Description  aos-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Aos1p and human SUMO-1 activating enzyme E1 N subunit; by homology, AOS-1 is predicted to form, with a catalytic subunit, UBA-2, a heterodimeric enzyme that activates the ubiquitin-like protein SMO-1/SUMO in preparation for its covalent attachment to target proteins to regulate their subcellular localization and/or stability; in C. elegans, AOS-1 is required for embryonic and larval development, as well as for proper Hox gene regulation; uba-2/aos-1(RNAi) animals that survive embryogenesis show ectopic expression of EGL-5 and ectopic anterior sensory ray formation.
Homology Group (KOG)  SMT3/SUMO-activating complex, AOS1/RAD31 component
