Gene Inhibited |
F11E6.5 (elo-2) |
Description of "F11E6.5" |
The elo-2 gene encodes a palmitic acid elongase, homologous to polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) elongases such as ELO-1, that is required for normally rapid growth, normally large body size, fertility, and for the quantitative regulation of the ultradian defecation rhythm; the joint action of ELO-2 with ELO-1 is strongly required for 20-carbon PUFA production and for general viability; elo-2 is most strongly expressed in intestinal cells, as well as other tissues such as the ventral nerve cord, pharyngeal muscles, uterus, and tail. |
