Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionalg-4 encodes an Argonaute (AGO) protein that is a member of the AGO clade of Argonaute small RNA-binding proteins; together with its paralog, alg-3, alg-4 is required for normal brood sizes at elevated temperatures, specifically for the process of spermiogenesis in which spermatids are converted to mobile ameboid sperm; alg-3/4 is also required for accumulation of male germline-specific 26G-RNAs, suggesting that alg-3/4 mediate thermotolerant fertility via a 26G-RNA-mediated pathway.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00035890

Reference (25)
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
