This gene encodes a protein containing an F-box, a motif predicted to mediate protein-protein interactions either with homologs of yeast Skp-1p or with other proteins; this gene's encoded protein also contains an FTH/DUF38 motif, which may also mediate protein-protein interaction.
Enriched in RICL; RICR; and intestine based on tiling array; RNA-seq; single-cell RNA-seq; and microarray studies. Is affected by several genes including daf-16; daf-2; and glp-1 based on microarray; tiling array; and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by twenty chemicals including 1-methylnicotinamide; methylmercuric chloride; and D-glucopyranose based on RNA-seq and microarray studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: F-box domain; Domain of unknown function DUF38/FTH, Caenorhabditis species; FTH domain; and F-box A protein FB224.
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
