Disease relevance of cpz-1

 

High impact information on cpz-1

  • Deletion of cpz-1 coding sequence or inhibition of cpz-1 function by RNA interference also caused morphological defects in the head or tail region of larvae, improperly developed gonad in adult worms and embryonic lethality [1].
  • The cpz-1 gene is expressed in various hypodermal cells of all developmental stages and is specifically expressed in the gonads and the pharynx of adult worms [1].
  • The Caenorhabditis elegans cathepsin Z-like cysteine protease, Ce-CPZ-1, has a multifunctional role during the worms' development [1].
