Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionlit-1 encodes a serine threonine protein kinase homolog related to the Drosophila protein Nemo; lit-1 is required for embryonic viability and plays a central role in controlling the asymmetry of cell divisions during embryogenesis; lit-1 acts downstream of mom-2 with respect to polarity defects and mediates larval cell fate decisions that involve POP-1; lit-1 is also required for amphid channel morphogenesis and thus, also for normal morphology of the outer labial sensilla; specifically, lit-1 is required in sheath glia for positively regulating amphid sensory compartment expansion; lit-1 is expressed in most embryonic and larval cells, including the amphid sheath glia.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00002946

Automated_descriptionEnables beta-catenin binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cell fate commitment; polarity specification of proximal/distal axis; and positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Located in cell cortex and nucleus. Part of serine/threonine protein kinase complex. Expressed in several structures, including hermaphrodite gonad; pharynx; tail hypodermis; and vulva. Is an ortholog of human NLK (nemo like kinase).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
