Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsun-1 encodes a protein member of the SUN-domain family, also called Matefin and is paralogous to UNC-84, whose general domain organization (one or more central transmembrane and coiled-coil domains, followed by a C-terminal SUN domain) is shared by Sad1p from Schizosaccharomyces pombe and UNC-84 from C. elegans; SUN-domain proteins bind lamins and the KASH domain proteins of the outer nuclear membrane; SUN-1 along with the KASH-domain protein ZYG-12, is required for movement, homologous pairing and interhomolog recombination of chromosomes during meiosis; SUN-1 is a nuclear envelope receptor for CED-4 during apoptosis, and is bound by CED-4 in vitro; SUN-1 colocalizes with the nuclear lamin LMN-1 in vivo and binds it in vitro; SUN-1 is required for localization of the hook protein ZYG-12 to the nuclear envelope, and thus for the attachment of centrosomes to nuclei; SUN-1 is strongly expressed in the nuclear envelope of all early embryonic cells, the primordial germ cells Z2 and Z3, and the germ cell lineage (but not in sperm).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006310

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable protein-membrane adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including centrosome localization; embryo development; and regulation of centrosome duplication. Located in nuclear envelope. Expressed in several structures, including Caa; Psub4; Z2; Z3; and germ line. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 16. Is an ortholog of human SUN5 (Sad1 and UNC84 domain containing 5).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkGene name created from parsing 'genotype' field from CGC strain informationCGC_data_submission
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
