Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionceh-16 encodes a homeodomain protein orthologous to Drosophila and vertebrate Engrailed proteins involved in segment and appendage development; ceh-16 is an essential gene required for proper specification and differentiation of the lateral seam cells during embryonic development; in specifying seam cell fates, CEH-16 appears to act as a transcriptional regulator, repressing expression of the eff-1 gene required for cell fusion and inducing expression of seam cell-specific genes such as elt-5/GATA, nhr-73, and nhr-74; in addition, during post-embryonic development, ceh-16 functions to regulate the expansion division of the epidermal seam cells that occurs during the L2 larval stage; in regulating the expansion division, ceh-16 interacts genetically with apr-1, a member of the Wnt signaling pathway that encodes the C. elegans APC ortholog; a rescuing CEH-16::GFP fusion protein is first expressed in the early embryo in cells of the AB lineage; in later embryonic stages CEH-16::GFP is seen in all lateral seam cell nuclei as well as in some anterior neurons; during post-embryonic development, CEH-16::GFP is expressed in the DA1 and DD1 motor neurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00024903

Automated_descriptionEnables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic body morphogenesis; epidermal cell fate specification; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including ABarpa; AIZ; hyp5; retrovesicular ganglion neurons; and seam cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease and autistic disorder. Is an ortholog of human EN1 (engrailed homeobox 1) and EN2 (engrailed homeobox 2).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
