DPY-18

CELE_Y47D3B.10, phy-1, Y47D3B.10
dpy-18 encodes a catalytic alpha subunit of collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase (P4H) orthologous to human P4H alpha (I) isoform (OMIM: 176710), an alpha subunit of prolyl-4-hydroxylase which is a procollagen modifying enzyme required for exoskeleton formation, morphogenesis and maintenance of body shape; dpy-18 has a critical role in hydroxylation of cuticle collagens during collagen synthesis; dpy-18, in complex with phy-2, is essential for the survival of the C. elegans; dpy-18 mutations alone result in a mild dumpy phenotype; expressed dpy-18 and ten-1 act in parallel influencing the connection between epidermis and muscle during embryonic development; deletion of dpy-18 causes aggregation of collagen IV in body wall muscles in elongated embryos and triggers the loss of tissue integrity in ten-1 mutants; dpy-18 is expressed throughout the hypodermis, head and posterior neurons.

Affinity Capture-MS

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner is identified by mass spectrometric methods.

Caenorhabditis elegans ALG-1 antimorphic mutations uncover functions for Argonaute in microRNA guide strand selection and passenger strand disposal.

Zinovyeva AY, Veksler-Lublinsky I, Vashisht AA, Wohlschlegel JA, Ambros VR

MicroRNAs are regulators of gene expression whose functions are critical for normal development and physiology. We have previously characterized mutations in a Caenorhabditis elegans microRNA-specific Argonaute ALG-1 (Argonaute-like gene) that are antimorphic [alg-1(anti)]. alg-1(anti) mutants have dramatically stronger microRNA-related phenotypes than animals with a complete loss of ALG-1. ALG-1(anti) miRISC (microRNA induced silencing complex) fails to undergo a functional transition ... [more]
