Genes Inhibited How is RNAi inhibition determined?
Gene Inhibited  K05C4.6 (hmp-2)
Description of "K05C4.6"  hmp-2 encodes a beta-catenin; HMP-2 activity is required during embryonic development for cell adhesion at adherens junctions, cell migration, and body morphogenesis; as a beta-catenin, HMP-2 likely functions solely as part of a cadherin-catenin complex, as in yeast two-hybrid assays, HMP-2 is the only C. elegans beta-catenin that binds HMP-1/alpha-catenin and HMR-1/cadherin; additionally, in the embryo, HMP-2 co-localizes to sites of epithelial cell contacts with HMP-1 and HMR-1/cadherin; however, despite its normal role in embryonic cell adhesion, HMP-2 can activate transcription and when overexpressed in vivo, can partially rescue vulval defects produced by loss of BAR-1/beta-catenin, suggesting that HMP-2 has retained the ability to interact with the Wnt signaling pathway.
