#	Name	WormBase	BLASTP E-Value	Genome Position	Description
1	tab-1	F31E8.3	1.9999999999999998e-87	chrII 6,804,197	tab-1 encodes a homeodomain protein homologous to Drosophila bsh (brain-specific homeodomain protein) and the vertebrate BarH-like homeodomain protein 1; TAB-1 is required, during early larval development, for backward movement in response to anterior touch with a wire, while during later larval stages, TAB-1 is required for response to gentle touch with a hair; TAB-1 expression begins in the early embryo in approximately 20-30 cells and is then restricted to a subset of neurons including AIB, AVJ, and RIV; TAB-1 expression in AIB may be controlled by the UNC-42 homeodomain protein and TAB-1 may autoregulate in the AVJ and RIV neurons.
2	gpc-2	F08B6.2	n/a	chrI 6,757,967	gpc-2 encodes one of two C. elegans heterotrimeric G protein gamma subunits; gpc-2 is required, along with its partner GPB-1, a G protein beta subunit, for proper mitotic spindle positioning and orientation during early embryonic cell divisions; to date, GPC-2 expression has been reported in electrically excitable cells (all neurons and muscles).
3	unc-119	M142.1	n/a	chrIII 10,907,547	unc-119 encodes a novel protein that is highly conserved amongst metazoans; unc-119 activity is required for proper development of the nervous system, including axonal branching and fasciculation, and hence, for normal movement, chemosensation, and feeding; unc-119 is expressed pan-neuronally beginning in the early embryo (~60 cells) and continuing through adulthood; although the molecular function of UNC-119 is not yet known, human UNC119, which can rescue C. elegans unc-119 mutant animals, is reported to function as a receptor-associated activator of signal transduction; thus, UNC-119 may be part of a signal transduction pathway that mediates axonal patterning in response to external developmental cues.
4	F46C8.3	F46C8.3	n/a	chrX 7,526,360
5	sop-2	C50E10.4	n/a	chrII 12,342,269	sop-2 encodes a SAM domain-containing protein that is related to, but not orthologous with, Polycomb group proteins and ETS transcription factors; during development, SOP-2 activity is required for maintaining a restricted pattern of Hox gene expression, such as that of mab-5 and egl-5, to specific cells and tissues; thus, SOP-2 is required for proper cell fate specification in a variety of cell lineages, including the serotonergic and dopaminergic male tail neurons and the ventral nerve cord; in regulating neurotransmitter phenotype, sop-2 functions together with sor-3, which also encodes a Polycomb group protein, and members of the TGF-beta signaling pathway; sop-2 and sor-3 also function together to regulate progression through larval development; a SOP-2::GFP reporter fusion is expressed in the nuclei of all somatic cells beginning at the 50-cell stage of embryogenesis; SOP-2::GFP expression is initially diffuse, but by the 200-cell stage is visible in distinct nuclear bodies, the size and number of which may correlate with DNA content.
6	F09B12.2	F09B12.2	n/a	chrX 15,099,156	contains similarity to Pfam domain PF01529 DHHC zinc finger domain contains similarity to Interpro domain IPR001594 (Zinc finger, DHHC-type)

9	syg-2	C26G2.1	n/a	chrX 14,658,836	syg-2 encodes a transmembrane protein that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of proteins; during larval development, SYG-2 activity is required in vulval epithelial cells for proper synaptic specificity of the HSNL neuron; in regulating synapse formation, SYG-2 acts as a guidepost protein for the SYG-1 receptor that interacts with SYG-2 and acts within HSNL to regulate synaptic specificity; a SYG-2::GFP fusion protein is expressed in the primary vulval cell lineages beginning at the L3 larval stage, with expression increasing during the L4 stage and finally disappearing by adulthood; in embryos, SYG-2::GFP expression is detected in some head neurons and body wall muscles, the latter of which also express the reporter during the L1 and L2 larval stages.
10	C54E10.6	C54E10.6	n/a	chrV 18,808,334	contains similarity to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Spindle Pole Component of molecular weight 24kDa; SGD:YMR117C
11	air-2	B0207.4	n/a	chrI 5,938,181	air-2 encodes an aurora/Ipl1-related serine/threonine protein kinase that affects embryonic viability and chromosome segregation during meiosis and mitosis and is required for cytokinesis; AIR-2 has two functions during mitosis, one in chromosome segregation, and a second, independent function in cytokinesis through ZEN-4; AIR-2 and ZEN-4 may act in parallel to a second pathway that includes CYK-1; AIR-2 phosphorylates two adjacent, evolutionarily conserved C-terminal serines of the inner centromere protein ICP-1; AIR-2 forms a robust complex with CSC-1, BIR-1, and ICP-1; air-2 is expressed highly in embryos, in the mature oocytes, spermatocytes, and extruded polar bodies.

14	lim-7	C04F1.3	n/a	chrI 5,721,019	lim-7 encodes a LIM homeodomain protein; a lim-7 mutation can result in lethality or sterility; lim-7 reporter fusion are specifically expressed in the somatic gonadal sheath cells during the L4 larval stage and continuing through adulthood.
15	kal-1	K03D10.1	n/a	chrI 14,135,394	kal-1 encodes a cell surface protein that contains a WAP-type protease inhibitor domain and Type III fibronectin domains and is the C. elegans ortholog of human KAL-1, mutated in the X-linked form of the neurological disorder Kallmann syndrome; in C. elegans, both kal-1 loss-of-function mutations and kal-1 overexpression result in similar phenotypes that indicate KAL-1 activity is required for epithelial morphogenesis and axon branching; kal-1 transcriptional reporters reveal expression beginning in the 50-cell stage embryo in 2-3 cells with later embryonic expression in at least 8-10 AB-derived ventral neuroblasts that are a substrate for migrating epidermal cells during ventral enclosure; later expression in larvae and adults is restricted to anterior neurons, including AIY, AIZ, RID, M5, ASI, and labial sensory neurons, ventral nerve cord motorneurons, midbody neurons HSN, CAN, and PVM, tail neurons DVB, DVC, and PDB, and the nonneuronal excretory cell as well as in uterine muscles; in the AIY interneurons, kal-1 is part of a gene battery whose expression is under the control of the CEH-10 and TTX-3 Paired and LIM-type homeodomains, respectively.
16	gpa-7	R10H10.5	n/a	chrIV 10,406,114	gpa-7 encodes a member of the G protein alpha subunit family of heterotrimeric GTPases that affects egg laying and response to water- soluble odorants; it is expressed in excitable cells.
17	let-381	F26B1.7	n/a	chrI 6,322,210	let-381 encodes a forkhead transcription factor and was identified in a screen for essential genes; let-381 is essential for development at different times as mutants exhibit embryonic and early larval lethality, with a few developing to sterile adults; inactivation of let-381 using RNA interference results in adults with mesodermal cell lineage defects and a reduced number of coelomocytes; reporter-gene assays indicate LET-318 is expressed when the embryo starts to elongate and continues to be expressed through all larval stages and into the adult.
