#	Name	WormBase	BLASTP E-Value	Genome Position	Description
1	nmgp-1	F13H8.4	8e-150	chrII 6,261,707	F13H8.4 encodes a homolog of the human neuronal membrane glycoproteins PLP1 (OMIM:300401, mutated in Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and spastic paraplegia), M6A (OMIM:601275), and M6B (300051); the presence of a myelin-related protein in C. elegans is currently unexplained, but suggests that some evolutionary precursor of myelin may exist in invertebrates, perhaps involving septate junctions between cells.
2	pat-4	C29F9.7	n/a	chrIII 92,134	The pat-4 gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase orthologous to human integrin-linked kinase (ILK, OMIM:602366) and is required for formation of integrin-mediated muscle cell attachments during embryogenesis; PAT-4 probably functions as an adaptor molecule and localizes to dense bodies and M lines; PAT-4 forms a ternary complex with PAT-6/actopaxin and UNC-112, and requires UNC-112, UNC-52/perlecan, PAT-2/alpha integrin, and PAT-3/beta integrin for proper localization to newly forming integrin adhesion complexes.
3	F53B3.3	F53B3.3	n/a	chrX 2,868,560
4	phat-2	C46H11.9	n/a	chrI 5,047,210	C. elegans PHAT-2 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domain PF01549 ShK domain-like contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR003582 (Metridin-like ShK toxin)
5	W04E12.7	W04E12.7	n/a	chrV 19,731,742	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF06162 Caenorhabditis elegans protein of unknown function (DUF976) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR010381 (Protein of unknown function DUF976, Caenorhabditis species), IPR016125 (Peptidase C15, pyroglutamyl peptidase I-like)
6	D2045.9	D2045.9	n/a	chrIII 10,477,763	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF01755 Glycosyltransferase family 25 (LPS biosynthesis protein) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR002654 (Glycosyl transferase, family 25), IPR000886 (Endoplasmic reticulum, targeting sequence)
7	F16H11.1	F16H11.1	n/a	chrX 4,670,622	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF07690 Major Facilitator Superfamily contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR011701 (Major facilitator superfamily MFS-1), IPR016196 (MFS general substrate transporter)
8	dep-1	F44G4.8	n/a	chrII 9,012,700	dep-1 encodes a class III receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (R-PTP) orthologous to human R-PTPs such as PTPRJ/Dep-1 (mutated in epithelial cancers; OMIM:600925); DEP-1 is required, redundantly with LIP-1 and LET-60, and downstream of LIN-12, to promote secondary over primary vulval fate in the P5.p and P7.p lineages; DEP-1 is expressed in P5.p and P7.p lineages, and dep-1 acts cell-autonomously in these lineages; DEP-1 colocalizes with LET-23 in punctae, and binds LET-23 in vitro; DEP-1, with LIP-1, is also required for normal duct cell and excretory pore development; dep-1 mutations are wild-type in isolation, but have vulval phenotypes with added mutations in lin-15, lip-1, or let-60; DEP-1 laterally inhibits secondary vulval fates in parallel with LIN-12/Notch signalling; in primary (P5.p) vulval cells, LET-60/RAS-activated SUR-2 inhibits dep-1 and lin-12 expression; since RNAi of 125 out of 165 predicted C. elegans protein phosphatase genes fails to enhance lip-1 mutations, the LIP-1/DEP-1 interaction is likely to be highly specific.
9	C07B5.2	C07B5.2	n/a	chrX 9,516,733	contains similarity to Listeria monocytogenes Probable tRNA (5-methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridylate)-methyltransferases(EC 2.1.1.61).; SW:TRMU_LISMO
10	F18A11.2	F18A11.2	n/a	chrII 13,034,546	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00650 CRAL/TRIO domain contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR001251 (Cellular retinaldehyde-binding/triple function, C-terminal), IPR011074 (Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein-like, N-terminal)
11	chs-2	F48A11.1	n/a	chrII 207,689	chs-2 encodes a putative chitin synthase, paralogous to CHS-1; CHS-2 is required for synthesis of chitin lining the inner pharyngeal surface (primarily in the buccal cavity and grinder), while CHS-1 is dispensable for pharyngeal chitin; CHS-2 is also required for normal pharyngeal shape and function, and for larval viability; chs-2(RNAi) animals have abnormally large, misshapen grinders, and arrest as early larvae; chs-2 is expressed by the glandular pharyngeal g1 and g2 cells, and by m3 and m4 myoepithelial cells; chs-2 is transcribed in short periods before each larval molt; the pharyngeal expression of chs-2 parallels gna-1; CHS-2 is predicted to be in the plasma membrane rather than the Golgi apparatus.
12	ZC123.3	ZC123.3	n/a	chrI 819,328	contains similarity to Pfam domains PF00046 (Homeobox domain) (3), PF00096 (Zinc finger, C2H2 type) (5)contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR003604 (Zinc finger, U1-type), IPR012287 (Homeodomain-related), IPR015880 (Zinc finger, C2H2-like), IPR013087 (Zinc finger, C2H2-type/integrase, DNA-binding), IPR001356 (Homeobox), IPR009057 (Homeodomain-like), IPR006572 (Zinc finger, DBF-type), IPR007087 (Zinc finger, C2H2-type)
13	C36A4.10	C36A4.10	n/a	chrIII 3,830,011
14	M05B5.2	M05B5.2	n/a	chrI 7,173,298	contains similarity to Mus musculus Hypothetical protein.; TR:Q8BQG5
15	gna-1	B0024.12	n/a	chrV 10,319,821	gna-1 encodes one of two C. elegans glucosamine 6-phosphate N-acetyltransferases (GNAs); by homology, GNA-1 is predicted to be required for the formation of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, a substrate in chitin synthesis, Golgi and cytoplasmic glycosylation, and GPI anchoring; gna-1, like chs-2, is expressed pharyngeally rather than in germline, and (unlike its paralog gna-2) does not have an osmotically-sensitive embryonic lethal RNAi phenotype; as loss of gna-1 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of GNA-1 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known.
16	K04C1.4	K04C1.4	n/a	chrX 14,246,093	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00036 EF hand contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR011992 (EF-Hand type), IPR002048 (Calcium-binding EF-hand)
17	F17C11.1	F17C11.1	n/a	chrV 10,942,089	contains similarity to Methanosarcina mazei Conserved protein.; TR:Q8PT55
18	F42H10.3	F42H10.3	n/a	chrIII 8,486,094	contains similarity to Pfam domains PF07653 (Variant SH3 domain) , PF00018 (SH3 domain) , PF00880 (Nebulin repeat) (2), PF00412 (LIM domain) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR000900 (Nebulin 35 residue motif), IPR013998 (Nebulin), IPR001452 (Src homology-3), IPR000108 (Neutrophil cytosol factor 2), IPR011511 (Variant SH3), IPR001781 (Zinc finger, LIM-type)
19	tba-9	F40F4.5	n/a	chrX 3,254,559	tba-9 encodes one of nine C. elegans alpha tubulins; by homology, TBA-9 is predicted to be a component of microtubules; as loss of tba-9 function via RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) does not result in any obvious abnormalities, TBA-9 likely functions redundantly with other alpha tubulins as a basic component of cellular architecture that may play additional roles in processes such as cell division, cell movement, and intracellular transport.
20	H22K11.2	H22K11.2	n/a	chrX 6,785,820	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF01301 Glycosyl hydrolases family 35 contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR000583 (Glutamine amidotransferase, class-II), IPR017853 (Glycoside hydrolase, catalytic core), IPR013781 (Glycoside hydrolase, subgroup, catalytic core), IPR001944 (Glycoside hydrolase, family 35)
21	his-16	ZK131.10	n/a	chrII 13,817,860	his-16 encodes an H2A histone; his-16 is contained within the histone gene cluster HIS3.
22	T24D11.1	T24D11.1	n/a	chrX 16,409,674	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00566 TBC domain contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR000195 (RabGAP/TBC)
23	F54C9.11	F54C9.11	n/a	chrII 8,584,206	contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR008126 (Outer membrane adhesion, Yersinia)
24	sel-7	K04G11.2	n/a	chrX 14,336,558	sel-7 encodes a novel protein with two predicted PEST sequences that is conserved in the related nematode C. briggsae and several parasitic nematodes, but has no known homologs in other organisms; sel-7 was identified in screens for suppressors of dominant lin-12 mutations that result in vulvaless and egg-laying defective animals; although loss of SEL-7 function via mutation or RNAi results in no obvious defects in a wild-type background, genetic studies suggests that SEL-7 acts downstream of LIN-12/Notch to positively regulate LIN-12 signaling, perhaps by regulating the activity or formation of the LAG-1, LIN-12(intra), SEL-8 nuclear complex; in vitro, SEL-7 self-associates and also interacts with TIR-1 (F13B10.1B), a protein that contains sterile alpha and Toll interleukin receptor motifs, and MDT-29 (K08E3.8), a glutamine-rich protein similar to mediator complex subunits, however the functional significance of these interactions is not yet known; a SEL-7::GFP translational fusion reveals expression in the nuclei of several cell types, including vulval precursor cells and those of the developing gonad.
25	gpb-2	F52A8.2	n/a	chrI 7,319,690	gpb-2 encodes an ortholog of Gbeta(5), that is dispensable for viability, but required for normal egg-laying, locomotion, and pharyngeal pumping; GBP-2 may regulate the interaction between the GOA-1 and EGL-30 signaling pathways based on genetic analysis; gpb-2 is expressed throughout development in the nervous system and in muscle, and expression is dependent upon expression of both EAT-16 and EGL-10.
26	F36F2.1	F36F2.1	n/a	chrI 9,019,505	contains similarity to Homo sapiens Actin-binding Rho-activating protein; ENSEMBL:ENSP00000311436
27	fkb-4	ZC455.10	n/a	chrV 12,786,120	fkb-4 encodes a peptidylprolyl cis/trans isomerase homologous to mammalian FK506 immunosuppressant-binding protein 9; FKB-4 expression is positively regulated by signaling through the DAF-2 insulin receptor-like pathway and in part, through the activity of the DAF-16 fork-head transcription factor suggesting that FKB-4 could play a role in metabolism and longevity; as loss of FKB-4 function via RNA-mediated interference does not result in any abnormalities, the precise role of FKB-4 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; FKB-4 contains a predicted endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention sequence and is thus proposed to localize to the ER.
28	aps-2	F02E8.3	n/a	chrX 4,458,734	aps-2 encodes an adaptin: specifically, it encodes an ortholog of the sigma2 subunit of adaptor protein complex 2 (AP2), which mediates endocytosis from the plasma membrane; APS-2 is required for embryonic and larval development and for normal body morphogenesis, but is not required for endocytosis of yolk protein in developing oocytes; APS-2 is expressed in nearly all cells during embryogenesis, but during larval and adult stages, expression is confined to neurons and some hypodermal cells, including vulval hypodermal cells during the fourth larval stage.
29	R90.1	R90.1	n/a	chrV 12,893,678	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF00069 Protein kinase domain contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR017441 (Protein kinase ATP binding, conserved site), IPR002290 (Serine/threonine protein kinase), IPR011009 (Protein kinase-like), IPR000719 (Protein kinase, core), IPR001245 (Tyrosine protein kinase), IPR017442 (Serine/threonine protein kinase-related)

31	srw-67	F18E3.2	n/a	chrV 7,418,725	C. elegans SRW-67 protein; contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR017452 (GPCR, rhodopsin-like superfamily)
32	F26A10.2	F26A10.2	n/a	chrX 7,634,533	F26A10.2 encodes a protein with four zinc-finger domains and a glutamine/asparagine-rich domain, that is required for maintenance of the germline and for locomotion; F26A10.2(RNAi) animals are uncoordinated and have sterile progeny.
33	nhr-79	T26H2.9	n/a	chrV 19,209,750	C. elegans NHR-79 protein; contains similarity to Pfam domains PF00104 (Ligand-binding domain of nuclear hormone receptor) , PF00105 (Zinc finger, C4 type (two domains)) contains similarity to Interpro domains IPR008946 (Nuclear hormone receptor, ligand-binding), IPR001723 (Steroid hormone receptor), IPR000324 (Vitamin D receptor), IPR013088 (Zinc finger, NHR/GATA-type), IPR001628 (Zinc finger, nuclear hormone receptor-type), IPR000536 (Nuclear hormone receptor, ligand-binding, core)
34	sgcb-1	K01A2.1	n/a	chrII 327,229	K01A2.1 is orthologous to the human gene SARCOGLYCAN, BETA (43KD DYSTROPHIN-ASSOCIATED GLYCOPROTEIN) (SGCB; OMIM:600900), which when mutated leads to disease.
35	R07B1.5	R07B1.5	n/a	chrX 9,865,660	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF01681 C6 domain contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR002601 (Protein of unknown function C6)
36	pqn-26	DY3.5	n/a	chrI 8,774,608	The protein product of this gene is predicted to contain a glutamine/asparagine (Q/N)-rich ('prion') domain, by the algorithm of Michelitsch and Weissman (as of the WS77 release of WormBase, i.e., in wormpep77).

46	T19B10.5	T19B10.5	n/a	chrV 11,235,863	T19B10.5 encodes a protein with partial similarity to human PERIAXIN (PRX; OMIM:605725), which when mutated leads to Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy.
47	pqn-55	R09E10.7	n/a	chrIV 10,289,947	The protein product of this gene is predicted to contain a glutamine/asparagine (Q/N)-rich ('prion') domain, by the algorithm of Michelitsch and Weissman (as of the WS77 release of WormBase, i.e., in wormpep77).

49	F23C8.6	F23C8.6	n/a	chrI 2,421,287	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF03357 Snf7 contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR005024 (Snf7)
50	rhgf-1	F13E6.6	n/a	chrX 10,704,787	rhgf-1 encodes an RGS RhoGEF (Regulator of G-protein Signaling Rho Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor); RHGF-1 functions within cholingergic motor neurons in one of four G-protein-mediated signaling pathways that control locomotion via regulation of acetylcholine (ACh) release at neuromuscular junctions; in regulating ACh release, RHGF-1 functions downstream of the C. elegans Galpha12 ortholog, GPA-12, and upstream of the Rho GTPase ortholog, RHO-1; additionally, rhgf-1 activity is required for normal mechanosensory behavior, egg laying, and embryonic development; an rhgf-1 reporter fusion is expressed in ventral cord motor neurons as well as several head neurons.
