OSM-1

CELE_T27B1.1, T27B1.1
osm-1 encodes a WD- and WAA-repeat containing protein that is the C. elegans ortholog of intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex B component IFT172; OSM-1 is a presumptive cargo molecule for kinesin-II, and OSM-1 is required, along with OSM-6, for the proper assembly of the middle segments of sensory cilia; osm-1 may act in a pathway with avr-14 to affect resistance to ivermectin-induced cessation of pumping, and mutants are defective in avoidance of solutions of high osmotic strength; an OSM-1::GFP fusion protein is expressed in amphid and phasmid chemosensory neurons where it undergoes both anterograde and retrograde intraflagellar transport.

Negative Genetic

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.

BACKGROUND: Understanding gene function and genetic relationships is fundamental to our efforts to better understand biological systems. Previous studies systematically describing genetic interactions on a global scale have either focused on core biological processes in protozoans or surveyed catastrophic interactions in metazoans. Here, we describe a reliable high-throughput approach capable of revealing both weak and strong genetic interactions in the ... [more]

Additional Notes

  • A systematic genetic interaction analysis (SGI) was carried out to detect interactions between 11 query mutants and 858 target genes compromised by RNA interference (RNAi). Interactions were determined using growth scores that indicated whether the resulting number of progeny from the double mutant was significantly different than that of single mutant controls.
