Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmtl-2 encodes one of two C. elegans metallothioneins, small, cysteine-rich, metal-binding proteins; MTL-2 functions in metal detoxification and homeostasis and stress adaptation; in addition, mtl-2 plays a role in regulating growth and fertility; mtl-2 expression is induced in larval and adult intestinal cells following exposure to cadmium or heat shock; MTL-2 intestinal expression is dependent upon ELT-2, an intestine-specific GATA-type transcription factor; mtl-2 is downregulated by DAF-16 in daf-2 mutants.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001688
