elb-1 encodes an Elongin B ortholog required for chromosome condensation and segregation during mitosis and meiotic division II, and also for cell proliferation (probably through degradation of CKI-1); elb-1(RNAi) animals tend to arrest at the second meiotic cell division, with escapers showing many other defects in chromosomal dynamics and cell cycle control such as abnormal pronuclear rotation and cortical protrusion, aberrant chromosomal structures in the intestine, and deficient germ cell proliferation; ELB-1 interacts with ELC-1 and ELC-2 in bacterial two-hybrid experiments.
