Enriched in body wall musculature; intestine; neurons; and retrovesicular ganglion based on microarray and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by several genes including
daf-12;
sir-2.1; and
clk-1 based on microarray; tiling array; and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by seven chemicals including Doxycycline; Ketamine; and Quercetin based on RNA-seq and microarray studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: LysM domain superfamily; LysM domain; and LysM and putative peptidoglycan-binding domain-containing protein 1-4. Is an ortholog of human LYSMD1 (LysM domain containing 1) and LYSMD2 (LysM domain containing 2).
