Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionpvl-5 was identified in screens for mutations that result in a protruding vulva phenotype; pvl-5 is defined by a single, recessive mutation that results in too few Pn.p cells in the ventral hypodermal region at the L2 larval stage as a result of abnormal programmed cell death around the time of the L1 molt; the ectopic programmed cell death observed in pvl-5 mutant animals is suppressed by loss-of-function mutations in ced-3 and gain-of-function mutations in ced-9, but not by loss-of-function mutations in ced-4; the molecular identity of pvl-5 is not yet known.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004408
