Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionklp-17 encodes a C-terminal kinesin motor protein orthologous to Drosophila NCD and Saccharomyces cerevisiae KAR3; by homology, KLP-17 is predicted to function as a minus-end directed motor; loss of klp-17 activity via RNAi results in embryonic lethality generally at the one- or two-cell stage with disorganized mitotic spindles and polyploid nuclei, suggesting that KLP-17 plays a role in chromosome segregation and germline development; in situ hybridization studies reveal that klp-17 mRNA is localized specifically to cell nuclei during early development, from the one-cell stage of embryogenesis until early larval stages; a klp-17::gfp transgene did not yield detectable GFP expression, but did result in a small percentage of morphologically abnormal males and intersexual animals that grew slowly and died upon reaching maturity, consistent with a role for klp-17 in chromosome dynamics.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003893

RemarkSequence connection from [Siddiqui SS], [krb 020711]
Map 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
