Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionglh-2 encodes a putative DEAD-box RNA helicase that contains six CCHC zinc fingers and is homologous to Drosophila VASA, a germ-line-specific, ATP-dependent, RNA helicase; at non-permissive temperatures, GLH-2 plays a role in germ-line development and fertility, specifically in regulating the normal extent of germ-line proliferation, oogenesis, and the production of functional sperm; GLH-2 activity may also be required for the wild-type morphology of P granules and for localization of several protein components, but not accumulation of P granule mRNA components; GLH-2 interacts in vitro with itself and with KGB-1, a JNK-like MAP kinase; GLH-2 is a constitutive P granule component and thus, with the exception of mature sperm, is expressed in germ cells at all stages of development; GLH-2 is cytoplasmic in oocytes and the early embryo, while perinuclear in all later developmental stages as well as in the distal and medial regions of the hermaphrodite gonad; GLH-2 is expressed at barely detectable levels in males.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00002611

Automated_descriptionEnables JUN kinase binding activity; RNA helicase activity; and protein self-association. Involved in germ cell development and post-embryonic development. Located in P granule. Expressed in germ line and gonad. Is an ortholog of human DDX4 (DEAD-box helicase 4).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (48)
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
