gene: plc-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables GTPase inhibitor activity; phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C activity; and small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate catabolic process; defense response to Gram-positive bacterium; and positive regulation of protein import into nucleus. Expressed in excretory system; intestine; neurons; spermatheca; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gastric adenocarcinoma; nephrotic syndrome type 2; and nephrotic syndrome type 3. Is an ortholog of human PLCE1 (phospholipase C epsilon 1).
