CELE_M01D7.5, M01D7.5

nlp-12 encodes two predicted neuropeptide-like proteins; nlp-12 is part of a LQFamide neuropeptide family that has members in at least one other nematode species; nlp-12 is expressed in one tail neuron; as loss of nlp-12 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of nlp-12-encoded peptides in development and/or behavior is not yet known.
