172059 | G5EC89 | CEH17_CAEEL | Homeobox protein ceh-17 | DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE | ALA and SIA axons exhibit outgrowth abnormalities, failing to run along the lateral cord to the tail (PubMed:10887091). ALA axons are shortened further in a vab-8 mutant background (PubMed:10887091). Drastically reduced expression of let-23/EGFR and plc-3/PLCgamma in ALA neurons (PubMed:20501595). RNAi-mediated knockdown causes severe defects in the ALA neuron in young adults (PubMed:20501595). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10887091, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20501595}. |
