Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptiondaf-38 encodes a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) with homology to human gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor; daf-38 participates in perception of ascr#2 as well as other ascarosides, which are the major small-molecule components of the dauer pheromone and control developmental diapause (dauer), olfactory learning, social behavior and lifespan; daf-38 forms a heterodimer with daf-37 (a GPCR that belongs to the serpentine receptor class w (Srw) family of chemoreceptors) that also participates in perception of the ascaroside, ascr#2), most likely to form a functional receptor complex; daf-38 and daf-37 are expressed in chemosensory neurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00041157

RemarkMap 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
