Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptioncnx-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of calnexin, a type I Ca2+-binding integral membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER); CNX-1 binds calcium and is predicted to function as a molecular chaperone required for glycoprotein folding and maturation as well as regulation of intracellular calcium homeostasis; in C. elegans, cnx-1 activity is required at 25 degrees C for wild-type levels of fertility and normal embryonic and larval development; cnx-1 activity is also required for maintaining viability in response to ER stress; in addition, cnx-1(RNAi) can suppress necrotic-like cell death induced by hyperactivated MEC-4 and DEG-1 ion channels, suggesting that CNX-1 also plays a role in regulating necrotic cell death; CNX-1 expression is first detected ubiquitously in the early embryo, with expression then becoming restricted to embryonic head and tail regions; post-embryonic expression is seen in the excretory cell, head and tail neurons, spermatheca, intestine, germ cells, and spicules in the male tail; antibody staining of early embryos indicates that CNX-1 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum; in regulating reproduction at 25 degrees C, cnx-1 functions redundantly with crt-1, which encodes calreticulin, an additional Ca2+-binding ER chaperone protein.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004880

Automated_descriptionEnables calcium ion binding activity. Involved in IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response and response to heat. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Expressed in copulatory spicule; excretory cell; nervous system; seam cell; and spermatheca. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Is an ortholog of human CANX (calnexin) and CLGN (calmegin).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (24)
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
