High impact information on src-1

  • Downregulation of src-1 by RNA interference decreases the biological processes initiated by the UNC-5 protein and decreases UNC-5 tyrosine phosphorylation [1].
  • In the src-1 mutant, the expression of unc-5/netrin receptor is normally regulated, and neither the precocious expression of UNC-5 nor the mutation in the unc-5 gene significantly affects the DTC migration defect [2].
  • The mutation in the src-1 gene results in defective distal tip cell (DTC)-directed gonad morphogenesis in an activity-dependent and DTC cell-autonomous manners [2].
  • The src-1 mutant also exhibits cell-autonomous defects in the migration and growth cone path-finding of Q neuroblast descendants AVM and PVM [2].
  • To elucidate the primitive roles of the Src family kinases (SFKs), here we characterized Caenorhabditis elegans orthologues of SFKs (src-1 and kin-22) and their regulator kinase Csk (csk-1) [3].
 

Biological context of src-1

 

Anatomical context of src-1

  • The src-1 and csk-1 genes are co-expressed in some head neurons, the anchor cell and the tail region, while kin-22 and csk-1 genes are co-expressed in pharyngeal muscles and tail region [3].
  • Moreover, src-1 and mes-1 mutants strongly enhance endoderm and EMS spindle rotation defects associated with Wnt pathway mutants [4].
