wrm-1

Gene
wrm-1
Protein
Armadillo repeat-containing protein wrm-1
Organism
Caenorhabditis briggsae
Length
799 amino acids
Function
Antagonistic role in the Wnt signaling pathway that operates in embryogenesis. When located at the cortex it has been shown to inhibit Wnt signaling during asymmetric cell division but when relocated to the nucleus it shows positive regulation. Has a role in blastomere signaling during endoderm specification. Activates lit-1-dependent kinase activity. Wrm-1/lit-1 complex promotes phosphorylation, down-regulation and subcellular relocation of pop-1. Can substitute for bar-1 indicating functional redundancy. Appears to have a role in centrosome positioning. Involved in the development of distal tip cells (DTC) by regulating the asymmetric distribution of cye-1 and cki-1 between the daughters of Z1.a and Z4.p cells.
