unc-22 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables protein kinase binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including adult behavior; positive regulation of sarcomere organization; and positive regulation of striated muscle contraction. Located in A band. Expressed in body wall musculature; pharyngeal muscle cell; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J; coronary artery disease; intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple); and tibial muscular dystrophy. Is an ortholog of human TTN (titin).
