Legacy_informationCalcium and NCS-1 are essential for isothermal track behavior (conditioning behavior with food and temperature).A functional NCS-1 is necessary in the AIY interneuron (not in AFD).The amount of NCS-1 regulates this associative learning and memory behaviour (more NCS-1 means faster learning and longer memory,no NCS-1 means absence of associative learning).

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionThe ncs-1 gene encodes a neuronal calcium sensor protein that, along with calcium, is essential for thermotaxis along isothermal paths in thermal gradients.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004666

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and calcium sensitive guanylate cyclase activator activity. Involved in chemosensory behavior; chemotaxis; and response to alkaline pH. Located in neuronal cell body. Expressed in head neurons; pm1; and tail neurons. Is an ortholog of human NCS1 (neuronal calcium sensor 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Remark[de Castro E, Nef P] Tc1 insertion obtained (pk242), also excision derivative. ncs for Neuronal Calcium Sensor. Region already sequenced, but in ACEDB ncs-1 gene (C44C1.3) is just named "similar to frequenin and other EF Hand calcium binding proteins" and there are errors in the intron/exon boundaries ("compared" to our cDNA), 3 parts of the 2nd intron are considered as exons ([viknfesrskiiilqllffky,ielyiptvkcfvpeksdise,pvkcmdpffdvlvlfsietshn] a.a. are in excess!) (we do not observe alt. splicing) Ce-NCS-1: cDNA: genbank name CELNCS1, accession L33680; Protein: Swiss Prot name NCS1_CAEEL, accession p36608

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
