Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionThe hlh-8 gene encodes a helix-loop-helix protein required for normal muscle development, and hence for normal defecation and egg-laying.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003174

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in mesodermal cell fate specification; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and vulval cell fate specification. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including M.dla; M.dra; M.vla; body wall muscle cell from M lineage; and enteric muscle. Used to study Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Barber-Say syndrome; Sweeney-Cox syndrome; and synostosis (multiple). Is an ortholog of human TWIST2 (twist family bHLH transcription factor 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (71)
RemarkMap 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.CGC_data_submission
