gene: daf-9 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable heme binding activity; oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen, reduced flavin or flavoprotein as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygen; and steroid hydroxylase activity. Involved in cell-cell signaling; dauer larval development; and regulation of cell migration. Located in neuronal cell body and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Expressed in several structures, including anterior ganglion; excretory cell; intestine; spermatheca; and vulval muscle.
