Caenorhabditis elegans

CEH-20

CELE_F31E3.1, F31E3.1

ceh-20 encodes one of three C. elegans homeodomain proteins (CEH-20, CEH-40, and CEH-60) homologous to Extradenticle (Exd/Pbx); together with ceh-40 and unc-62, ceh-20 activity is required for embryonic viability; ceh-20 is also required as a cofactor for LIN-39- and MAB-5- dependent postembryonic mesoderm patterning; in addition, ceh-20 is required for regulating post-embryonic migrations of the Q neuroblast descendants and for regulating vulval development; a CEH-20::GFP fusion protein is expressed in embryos and postembryonically in many cell types including the Q, P, and V cells and their descendants; CEH-20 localizes to the nucleus.
