efhd-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of the mammalian EF hand domain-containing proteins EFHD1 and EFHD2; large-scale expression studies report that efhd-1 is expressed in the pharynx, the body wall muscle, and the nervous system.
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.
