gene: oga-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables hexosaminidase activity and protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including dauer larval development; glycogen metabolic process; and negative regulation of protein glycosylation. Expressed in body wall musculature; coelomocyte; nerve ring; pharyngeal muscle cell; and rectal muscle. Used to study type 2 diabetes mellitus. Is an ortholog of human OGA (O-GlcNAcase).
