Genes Inhibited How is RNAi inhibition determined?
Gene Inhibited  C44B11.3 (mec-12)
Description of "C44B11.3"  mec-12 encodes a novel C. elegans alpha-tubulin that is unique amongst C. elegans alpha tubulins in that it may be subject to post-translational acetylation; MEC-12 is required for normal mechanosensory response to gentle touch, and specifically for formation of the 15-protofilament microtubule bundle present in the touch receptor neurons; mec-12 interacts genetically with mec-5, which encodes a unique C. elegans collagen secreted by the hypodermis; MEC-12 is highly expressed in the touch neurons as well as in several other neurons that do not contains the microfilament bundle, such as the ventral cord motorneurons.
