Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionsmi-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of human Gemin2, a novel protein that interacts with the product of the survival motor neuron (SMN) gene, mutations in which are associated with spinal muscular atrophy; in C. elegans, smi-1 is an essential gene required for embryonic development past the mid-proliferation stage; in vitro, SMI-1 physically interacts with C. elegans SMN-1, indicating that the interaction between these two proteins is conserved; SMI-1 is expressed throughout development in multiple tissue types including the gut, neurons, and body wall muscles; SMI-1 localizes primarily to nuclei, with some protein also detected in the cytoplasm and in some neuronal processes.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00028478

Disease_relevanceMutations in the human genes SMN1 and SMN2, which encode a RNA-binding protein, SMN, cause the inherited neuromuscular disorder, spinal muscular atrophy; this affects the control of muscle movement due to a loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord and the brainstem, leading to weakness and wasting (atrophy) of muscles; deletion of C. elegans smn-1/SMN, leads to several muscular defects (locomotive and pharyngeal pumping), and reduced lifespan; C. elegans has shown to be an effective genetic model to study SMN loss of functions defects; in mammals, SMN is tightly associated with SIP1/Gemin2; in C. elegans, the SMN and SIP orthologs, SMN-1 and SMI-1, interact and SMI-1 expression pattern and RNA interference phenotype show considerable overlap with those of smn-1; further, a yeast two-hybrid screen has identified several elegans smn-1 interacting proteins: F08F8.9c, K05C4.5, K07F5.1 (sequence similarity to proteins involved in RNA processing), F56D12.5a, RAN-2, ZK1320.7 (contain domains involved in RNA processing/metabolism, such as RNA-binding domains) and LET-418, MOG-4 (DEAD box helicase domains).Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00028478

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
