lact-3 encodes a beta-lactamase domain-containing protein that contains a predicted signal sequence; loss of lact-3 activity via RNAi has been reported to result in reduced fat content.
Enriched in MSpaaaaa; OLL; PVD; and intestine based on microarray; tiling array; and single-cell RNA-seq studies. Is affected by several genes including daf-16; daf-2; and skn-1 based on microarray; proteomic; and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by eleven chemicals including aldicarb; Cry5B; and stavudine based on microarray and RNA-seq studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Beta-lactamase-related; Beta-lactamase; and Beta-lactamase/transpeptidase-like.
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.
