gene: ifa-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in cellular localization; heterochromatin formation; and nucleus organization. Located in intermediate filament. Expressed in several structures, including egg-laying apparatus; excretory cell; neurons; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in partial lipodystrophy; primary autosomal recessive microcephaly; and progressive myoclonus epilepsy 9. Is an ortholog of human LMNB2 (lamin B2).
