Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionhyl-2 encodes a predicted transmembrane protein orthologous to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Lag1p (longevity assurance gene), a protein preferentially expressed in young yeasts; by homology, HYL-2 is predicted to have several possible functions, including regulation of lipid, particularly ceramide, biosynthesis, regulation of lipid transport, and regulation of protein translocation in the endoplasmic reticulum ; however, as loss of hyl-2 activity via RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of hyl-2 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003354

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable sphingosine N-acyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in ceramide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in head; hypodermis; intestine; tail; and terminal bulb. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis 9. Is an ortholog of human CERS6 (ceramide synthase 6).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
