Interaction_summaryBoth wild-type and unc-2 mutant nematodes contained similar levels of cellular UNC-43::GFP. However, although wild-type nematodes contained abundant UNC-43::GFP in their neurites, unc-2 mutants contained low neurite levels of the kinase. Interestingly, unc-2 loss-of-function mutants also contained fewer clusters of UNC-43::GFP.

Subcellular_localizationUNC-43::CFP protein was detected in neuron cell bodies and out at neurites, where it formed clusters along the ventral nerve cord.

RemarkUNC-2 regulates two different aspects of UNC-43 neurite localization: the amount of UNC-43 that accumulates in the unlocalized neurite pool and the amount of UNC-43 that accumulates in clusters.
