gene: ceh-12 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in central nervous system development and neuron projection morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in VB neuron; ventral nerve cord; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Currarino syndrome. Is an ortholog of human MNX1 (motor neuron and pancreas homeobox 1).
