6	H02I12.1	H02I12.1	n/a	chrIV 11,375,266	H02I12.1 encodes a large (1319-residue) protein with 12 chitin-binding peritrophin-A domains; H02I12.1(RNAi) animals have an osmotically-sensitive embryonic lethal phenotype, perhaps because of defects in chitin and eggshell synthesis; like CEJ-1 and CPG-2, H02I12.1 may participate in eggshell synthesis and early embryonic development; H02I12.1's multiple peritrophin-A domains might enable mechanical cross-linking of chitin.
7	gln-6	C28D4.3	n/a	chrIV 9,740,184	C. elegans GLN-6 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domains PF03951 (Glutamine synthetase, beta-Grasp domain) , PF00120 (Glutamine synthetase, catalytic domain) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR008147 (Glutamine synthetase, beta-Grasp), IPR014746 (Glutamine synthetase/guanido kinase, catalytic region), IPR008146 (Glutamine synthetase, catalytic region)
8	C30F12.4	C30F12.4	n/a	chrI 6,972,971	contains similarity to Triticum aestivum Gamma-gliadin precursor.; SW:P08453
9	B0304.2	B0304.2	n/a	chrII 4,524,073
10	klp-15	M01E11.6	n/a	chrI 5,578,180	C. elegans KLP-15 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00225 Kinesin motor domain contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR001752 (Kinesin, motor region)
11	klp-16	C41G7.2	n/a	chrI 9,513,594	klp-16 encodes a C-terminal motor kinesin orthologous to the Drosophila melanogaster Ncd and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Kar3; however KLP-16 along with KLP-3, KLP-15 and KLP-17 form an unique subgroup based on amino acid sequence and secondary structure analysis; klp-16 is involved in development of the nervous system in embryos and in chromosome segregation; in situ RNA hybridization experiments indicate that klp-16 is localized in the anterior nervous system in the head region of late embryos.
12	H02I12.5	H02I12.5	n/a	chrIV 11,402,613
13	W02F12.3	W02F12.3	n/a	chrV 6,703,798	contains similarity to Leishmania braziliensis Proteophosphoglycan ppg4.; TR:A4HM87
14	egg-2	R01H2.3	n/a	chrIII 7,059,489	C. elegans EGG-2 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00057 Low-density lipoprotein receptor domain class A contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR002172 (Low density lipoprotein-receptor, class A, cysteine-rich)
15	nos-2	ZK1127.1	n/a	chrII 7,066,218	nos-2 encodes one of three genes in C. elegans that contains a putative zinc-binding domain similar to the one found in Drosophila nanos; nos-2 affects incorporation of primordial germ cells into the somatic gonad, is required redundantly with nos-1 to prevent primordial germ cells from dividing in starved animals and to maintain germ cell viability during larval development in hermaphrodites and in males, and also functions together with nos-1 and nos-3 in the hermaphrodite switch from spermatogenesis to oogenesis; nos-2 is expressed in the primordial germ cells around the time of gastrulation from a maternal RNA associated with P granules, and it is expressed coordinately with nos-1in a dynamic fashion until the embryonic 200-cell stage.
16	C48B4.9	C48B4.9	n/a	chrIII 9,562,829	contains similarity to Arabidopsis thaliana Hypothetical protein (At1g32400/F5D14_22) (Tobamovirus multiplications2A).; TR:Q9C5W7
17	T24D1.3	T24D1.3	n/a	chrI 9,959,459	contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR001841 (Zinc finger, RING-type)
18	cpar-1	F54C8.2	n/a	chrIII 9,434,486	cpar-1 encodes one of two C. elegans proteins homologous to the inner kinetochore histone H3 variant CENP-A (the other is encoded by hcp-3); loss of cpar-1 and hcp-3 activity via RNAi results in mitotic chromosome segregation defects, but no significant defects in meiotic chromosome segregation; when expressed in the germline using the pie-1 promoter, a CPAR-1::GFP fusion protein localizes to meiotic chromosomes during late prophase/prometaphase of meiosis I, but is not seen on chromosomes during meiosis II.
19	C16A11.6	C16A11.6	n/a	chrII 4,237,141
20	egg-5	R12E2.10	n/a	chrI 4,170,287	C. elegans EGG-5 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00102 Protein-tyrosine phosphatase contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR003595 (Protein-tyrosine phosphatase, catalytic), IPR000242 (Protein-tyrosine phosphatase, receptor/non-receptor type), IPR000387 (Protein-tyrosine phosphatase), IPR000340 (Protein-tyrosine phosphatase, dual specificity)
21	fbxa-215	Y45F10C.3	n/a	chrIV 13,666,087	This gene encodes a protein containing an F-box, a motif predicted to mediate protein-protein interactions either with homologs of yeast Skp-1p or with other proteins; this gene's encoded protein also contains an FTH/DUF38 motif, which may also mediate protein-protein interaction.
22	C37C3.9	C37C3.9	n/a	chrV 7,853,081	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00651 BTB/POZ domain contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR000210 (BTB/POZ-like), IPR011333 (BTB/POZ fold), IPR013069 (BTB/POZ)
23	mex-5	W02A2.7	n/a	chrIV 13,354,881	mex-5 encodes a novel protein that contains two CCCH zinc finger motifs; maternally provided MEX-5, which functions partly redundantly with the highly similar CCCH finger protein MEX-6, is essential for transducing polarity cues and establishing soma/germline asymmetry in the early embryo; in regulating soma/germline asymmetry, MEX-5 interacts with, and activates, the SOCS-box protein ZIF-1, which functions as part of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that degrades germ plasm proteins in somatic blastomeres; accordingly, ectopic expression of MEX-5 throughout the early embryo results in reduced expression of germline proteins in germline blastomeres; MEX-5 is a cytoplasmic protein expressed at uniform levels in oocytes and newly fertilized eggs; from the 1-cell to 4-cell stages of embryogenesis, MEX-5 expression is dynamic, with highest levels seen in the anterior AB blastomere and, for a time, its daughters, the anterior portion of the P1 blastomere, P1 centrosomes (both, then posterior only), and the EMS and C blastomeres; the asymmetric distribution of MEX-5 in early embryos depends upon wild-type activity of the PAR and OMA-1 proteins.
24	mex-6	AH6.5	n/a	chrII 9,525,192	mex-6 encodes a CCCH zinc-finger protein highly similar to MEX-5 that functions with MEX-5 to affect embryonic viability, establish soma germline asymmetry in embryos and establish PIE-1, MEX-1, and POS-1 asymmetry in embryos, and also affects formation of intestinal cells; MEX-6 and MEX-5 may act downstream of the PAR proteins.
25	plk-3	F55G1.8	n/a	chrIV 7,472,120	C. elegans PLK-3 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domains PF00659 (POLO box duplicated region) (2), PF07714 (Protein tyrosine kinase) , PF00069 (Protein kinase domain) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR017441 (Protein kinase ATP binding, conserved site), IPR002290 (Serine/threonine protein kinase), IPR011009 (Protein kinase-like), IPR008271 (Serine/threonine protein kinase, active site), IPR017450 (POLO box), IPR000719 (Protein kinase, core), IPR001245 (Tyrosine protein kinase), IPR017442 (Serine/threonine protein kinase-related), IPR000959 (POLO box duplicated region)
26	F27C8.6	F27C8.6	n/a	chrIV 9,587,998	F27C8.6 encodes a putative arylacetamide deacetylase and microsomal lipase; F27C8.6 is required for sperm to normally migrate towards a PUFA-based signal exuded by oocytes; F27C8.6(RNAi) hermaphrodites are infertile, both through aberrant loss of their own sperm and through failure of males to effectively inseminate them.
27	C14B1.9	C14B1.9	n/a	chrIII 3,725,339	contains similarity to Homo sapiens Hypothetical protein; ENSEMBL:ENSP00000307805
28	T05F1.2	T05F1.2	n/a	chrI 9,623,710	T05F1.2 encodes a novel protein; in situ hybridization studies indicate that T05F1.2 mRNA is expressed in the medial germline.
29	C48B4.6	C48B4.6	n/a	chrIII 9,557,903	contains similarity to Plateumaris constricticollis toyamensis Cytochrome oxidase subunit I (Fragment).; TR:Q85QH2
30	K03H4.2	K03H4.2	n/a	chrV 13,153,453	contains similarity to Plasmodium falciparum Hypothetical protein.; TR:O96209
31	T05B9.1	T05B9.1	n/a	chrII 11,260,588	contains similarity to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mlp proteins restrict telomere length by influencing the Rif1-Tel1 pathway of telomerase regulation; also involved in the translocation of macromolecules between the nucleoplasm and the NPC; SGD:YKR095W
32	C36B1.11	C36B1.11	n/a	chrI 8,756,734	contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR001576 (Phosphoglycerate kinase)
33	syp-2	C24G6.1	n/a	chrV 5,537,191	C. elegans SYP-2 protein ;
34	C03D6.6	C03D6.6	n/a	chrI 9,657,459	contains similarity to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Involved in cell cycle control and ion homeostasis; SGD:YKR072C
35	msh-4	T02G5.6	n/a	chrII 7,078,297	C. elegans MSH-4 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00488 MutS domain V contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR000432 (DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal)
36	vha-18	F52E1.10	n/a	chrV 8,412,615	vha-18 encodes an an ortholog of subunit H of the cytoplasmic (V1) domain of vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase (V-ATPase); VHA-18 and VHA-15 are co-orthologs; VHA-18 is a predicted cytosolic stator (stalk) component.
37	Y18D10A.11	Y18D10A.11	n/a	chrI 12,862,741	contains similarity to Homo sapiens Putative uncharacterized protein DKFZp779H0156; ENSEMBL:ENSP00000344380
38	K07A1.1	K07A1.1	n/a	chrI 9,583,089	contains similarity to Plasmodium falciparum Hypothetical protein.; TR:Q8IBJ6
39	F32D1.7	F32D1.7	n/a	chrV 4,375,562	contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR005405 (Potassium channel, voltage dependent, Kv3.4)
40	uev-2	F56D2.4	n/a	chrIII 5,583,632	uev-2 encodes a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (UBC or E2) variant that contains the characteristic UBC motif, but lacks the critical active-site cysteine residue necessary for catalytic activity; as loss of UEV-2 function via RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) does not result in any abnormalities, the precise role of UEV-2 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; based on similarity to Saccharomyces cerevisiae and human proteins, however, UEV-2 may play a role in cell cycle control or response to stress or DNA damage.
41	W02D9.5	W02D9.5	n/a	chrI 12,561,291	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00635 MSP (Major sperm protein) domain contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR008962 (PapD-like), IPR000535 (Major sperm protein)
42	B0304.4	B0304.4	n/a	chrII 4,522,834
43	cpg-2	B0280.5	n/a	chrIII 7,102,966	cpg-2 encodes a protein with six chitin-binding peritrophin-A domains and three mucin-like regions; CPG-2 is individually dispensable for normal embryonic development; however, CPG-2 and CPG-1 are jointly required for osmotic integrity of early embryos, error-free chromosomal segregation during meiosis, polar body extrusion, association of the sperm pronucleus/centrosome complex (SPCC) with the early embryonic cortex, localization of PAR-2 in early embryos, posterior localization of P granules or PIE-1, and pseudocleavage; CPG-2, like CPG-1, is covalently linked to chondroitin, which itself is required for vulval morphogenesis, polar-body extrusion, and separation of the eggshell from the embryonic plasma membrane; cpg-2 mRNA, like that of cpg-1, is expressed specifically in the adult hermaphrodite germ line and is bound by GLD-1; CPG-2 has 34 potential chondroitin attachment sites, four of them verified by mass spectrometry, and transgenic CPG-2 synthesized in mammalian cells carries chondroitin sulfate chains; CPG-2's multiple peritrophin-A domains may enable mechanical cross-linking of chitin.
44	T04A8.8	T04A8.8	n/a	chrIII 4,694,596	contains similarity to Homo sapiens;Mus musculus;Rattus norvegicus;Bos taurus;Sus scrofa Ubiquitin-like protein SMT3B (Sentrin 2) (HSMT3).; SW:SM32_HUMAN
45	mom-2	F38E1.7	n/a	chrV 8,357,065	mom-2 encodes a member of the Wnt family of secreted signaling glycoproteins that is required for induction of endodermal (gut) tissue in the 4-cell stage embryo; MOM-2, required in the inducing blastomere (P2) at the 4-cell stage, may be the ligand for MOM-5, a Frizzled homolog, thought to act in the receiving blastomere (EMS); MOM-2 genetically interacts in the same pathway as KIN-19, but parallel to APR-1; MOM-2 also may be a ligand for LIN-18, a Ryk homolog.
46	R02F2.4	R02F2.4	n/a	chrIII 5,485,028	R02F2.4 encodes a protein with six chitin-binding peritrophin-A domains; R02F2.4 transcripts are enriched during oogenesis; like CEJ-1 and CPG-2, R02F2.4 might participate in eggshell synthesis and early embryonic development, and R02F2.4's multiple peritrophin-A domains might enable mechanical cross-linking of chitin; however, R02F2.4 has no obvious function in mass RNAi assays; while R02F2.4 is more closely similar to CPG-2 than CEJ-1, it may be less strongly expressed (since it has substantially fewer ESTs) and thus be less important in development.
47	rmd-1	T05G5.7	n/a	chrIII 9,759,548	C. elegans RMD-1 protein; contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR011990 (Tetratricopeptide-like helical)
48	F57C2.3	F57C2.3	n/a	chrII 14,524,512	contains similarity to Homo sapiens Hypothetical protein; ENSEMBL:ENSP00000265391
49	hus-1	H26D21.1	n/a	chrI 3,698,705	hus-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hus1 DNA damage checkpoint protein; in C. elegans, hus-1 activity is required for DNA damage-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, telomere maintenance, and hence, genome stability and development; specifically, hus-1 is required for the CEP-1/p53-dependent increase in germline egl-1 expression following irradiation; a HUS-1::GFP fusion protein is detected in the nuclei of mitotic and meiotic germ cells, mature oocytes, embryos, and somatic larval cells, particularly those that are proliferating; while HUS-1 localization is generally diffuse throughout these nuclei, following irradiation, HUS-1 localizes to discrete foci that overlap with chromatin; HUS-1 nuclear localization is dependent upon the Rad9 homologue HPR-9 and upon the checkpoint protein MRT-2, with which it interacts in yeast two-hybrid and in vitro assays.
50	skr-17	C06A8.4	n/a	chrII 7,784,177	skr-17 encodes a homolog of Skp1 in S. cerevisiae, a core component of the SCF (Skp1p, Cullin, F-box) ubiquitin-ligase complex that facilitates ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation; SKR-17 has no known function in vivo, since skr-17(RNAi) animals are at least superficially normal, and SKR-17 does not appear to interact in vitro with any of the C. elegans cullin homologs.
