High impact information on daf-19

  • We show that this novel protein localizes to basal bodies in mouse and C. elegans, is under the regulatory control of daf-19, and is necessary for the generation of both cilia and flagella [1].
  • Several genes that function in all ciliated sensory neurons have an RFX target site in their promoters and require daf-19 function [2].
  • Reduction of dyf-3Colon, two colonsgfp expression in a daf-19 mutant suggests that dyf-3 expression is regulated by DAF-19 transcription factor, and DYF-3 may be involved in the intraflagellar transport system [3].
  • The daf-19 (m86) mutation eliminates all cilia, leaving only occasional centrioles in the dendrites [4].
  • Among these are mutations in daf-8 and daf-19, genes for which only one mutation had been previously identified [5].
