Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionarx-5 also called as p21Arc encodes a subunit of the actin related protein of the conserved Arp2/3 complex, with 60% amino acid similarity with the homologous genes from human (OMIM: 604225); arx-5 is an essential gene as disruption in the expression by RNAi results in embryonic arrest due to ventral enclosure during morphogenesis; Arp2/3 depletion results in partial shrinking of the Ea/p apical surfaces and incomplete Ea/p cell internalization; WSP-1 activates Arp2/3 complex and their function in ventral enclosure is cell autonomous; Arp2/3 regulates some Apical Junction components in embryos and adults; Arp2/3 is required during intestinal morphogenesis for regulation of intestinal lumen width in embryos and apical F-actin accumulation during larval and adult growth.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00005843

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable actin binding activity. Predicted to contribute to actin filament binding activity. Involved in epithelial cell migration and morphogenesis of embryonic epithelium. Located in striated muscle dense body. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetes mellitus. Is an ortholog of human ARPC3 (actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

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
