[C.elegansII] e2091 : adult males lack V6-derived rays, alae extend into tail region; V6 lineage transformed into V1-V4; cell autonomous action;variable additional defects, some embryonic lethality.OA3: mu13 (similar to e2091), ct224 (pka nob-2, lethal with arrest at hatching, severely deformed posterior, deletion null), ct281. Cloned: 1.25 and 1.45 kb transcripts, encode homeoprotein (pka ceh-3) with similarity to Drosophila caudal, mouse cdx-1. [Waring and Kenyon 1991; Waring et al. 1992; CF; BW]

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionpal-1 encodes a homeodomain protein that is the C. elegans Caudal ortholog; PAL-1 is required maternally and embryonically for specification of the C and D posterior blastomere fates and thus, for proper bodywall muscle and hypodermal development during embryogenesis; PAL-1 is also required postembryonically for fate specification of the posterior V6 neuroectoblast during male tail development; in regulating embryonic bodywall muscle specification, PAL-1 binds to an enhancer element in the promoter of hlh-1, the sole C. elegans MRF family member, to positively regulate hlh-1 transcription; PAL-1 is expressed in posterior blastomeres beginning at the four-cell stage of embryogenesis and its expression continues during embryogenesis in posterior-derived tissues and cells undergoing movement or forming midline structures; pal-1 is subject to both transcriptional and translational regulation.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001409

Automated_descriptionEnables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell fate commitment; embryonic pattern specification; and positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in condensed nuclear chromosome. Expressed in several structures, including ABprpppppaa; enteric muscle; epithelial cell; oocyte; and tail spike. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Barrett's esophagus. Is an ortholog of human CDX1 (caudal type homeobox 1) and CDX2 (caudal type homeobox 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
