Disease_model_descriptionHuman UBA5 encodes the E1-activating enzyme of ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (UFM1) and mutations in UBA5 are implicated in early-onset encephalopathies; in C. elegans uba-5(ok3364) mutant animals and Ufm1 cascade mutants displayed a significantly higher rate of pharynx grinder paralysis in the presence of aldicarb, compared to wild-type, pointing to a pathophysiological mechanism involving an increased amount of ACh in the neuromuscular junctions.
