General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Has a role in endoderm cell specification and pharyngeal development. Required for the migration of epithelial cells, organization of the anterior seam cells and ceh-13 expression during embryo morphogenesis. During larval development, apr-1 is required for expression of lin-39 in P3-8.p. Shown to negatively regulate Wnt signaling in vulval precursor cells. Has a role in cell division by establishing the polarity of the mother cell which forms the asymmetries of the daughter nuclei. Thought to regulate export of wrm-1 from the nucleus possibly as part of a complex involving pry-1. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5 Ref.7 |
| Subunit structure | Interacts (via N-terminus) with bar-1 and hmp-2; the interaction with hmp-2 is relatively weak. Interacts (via C-terminus) with pry-1 (via N-terminus). Probably associates with bar-1, gsk-3, pry-1 in a complex. Ref.4 Ref.6 |
| Subcellular location | Cell junction › adherens junction. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note: Found in clusters near the ends of microtubules that extend into regions of actively migrating plasma membranes. Shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.7 |
| Tissue specificity | Duing the L1 stage, expressed in vulval precursor cells (P3-8.p), seam cells and excretory cells. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.7 |
| Disruption phenotype | Worms exhibit lack of endoderm, excessive pharyngeal tissue and premature division of the E daughter blastomeres during embryogenesis. Two-thirds arrest during embryogenesis and the remaining third during the L1 stage. Ref.1 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) family. Contains 1 ARM repeat. |
