[Kari C] caf-2(hf5) is defective in dye (FITC or DiO) filling of amphid and phasmid neurons.
[C.elegansII] e1124 : non-chemotactic to sodium ion, slightly small; defective osmotic avoidance; defective dauer formation; males impotent; ciliated neurons have abnormal stunted ultrastructure; Dyf (no FITC uptake); octopamine deficient. ES2 ME0. OA>30: e1379, e1253 (pka che-8), p801 (pka osm-2), m443mut, mn333mut,sa129, etc. Also hf5 (pka caf-2, resistant to30 mM caffeine;no gross phenotype; Dyf). High forward mutation frequency. [Lewis and Hodgkin 1977; Starich et al. 1995; NJ; SP; DR]
Complementation_data[Kari C] caf-2(hf5) fails to complement che-3(e1124)with respect to dye filling. caf-2(hf5) complements dyf-5(mn400).

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionche-3 encodes a dynein heavy chain (DHC) 1b isoform that affects the establishment and maintainance of the structural integrity of sensory cilia, and that also has a role in intraflagellar transport; CHE-3 is expressed in ciliated sensory neurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004136

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable dynein light intermediate chain binding activity and minus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Involved in several processes, including dauer entry; non-motile cilium assembly; and positive regulation of dauer larval development. Located in non-motile cilium. Expressed in I4 neuron; PDEL; PDER; and nerve ring. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 3. Is an ortholog of human DYNC2H1 (dynein cytoplasmic 2 heavy chain 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
