Enriched in germ line; hypodermis; and in male based on proteomic and RNA-seq studies. Is affected by several genes including
daf-2;
skn-1; and
dpy-10 based on microarray; RNA-seq; and proteomic studies. Is affected by twenty-four chemicals including hydrogen sulfide; Ethanol; and methylmercury hydroxide based on microarray and RNA-seq studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: C-type lectin-like/link domain superfamily; Lectin C-type domain; C-type lectin-like; and C-type lectin fold.
