gene: unc-97 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables myosin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including muscle cell cellular homeostasis; positive regulation of sarcomere organization; and sensory perception of mechanical stimulus. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; basal plasma membrane; and contractile fiber. Expressed in body wall musculature and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2W. Is an ortholog of human LIMS1 (LIM zinc finger domain containing 1) and LIMS2 (LIM zinc finger domain containing 2).
