ES3 ME0. OA>10: e553 (resembles e53), e152 (weaker phenotype behaviorally and anatomically, dorsal cord partially formed), bx8, ev447,st1001tci, etc. See also unc-6, unc-40. Cloned: 3.0 and 3.1 kb transcripts (different 5') ,encode predicted 919 aa transmembrane protein,2 Ig domains and 2 TSP domains. Mosaic analysis indicates autonomous action in neurons, DTC; ectopic expression in touch cells can cause their dorsalward migration.

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionunc-5 encodes a netrin receptor; unc-5 activity is required cell autonomously for dorsalward cell and pioneer motor axon migrations along the body wall that are essential for normal locomotion and gonad development; unc-5 mRNAs are expressed throughout the entire life cycle, with increasing levels seen as animals progess to adulthood.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001619

Automated_descriptionEnables netrin receptor activity and protein tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including axon guidance; regulation of neuron projection development; and sex differentiation. Acts upstream of or within distal tip cell migration. Located in axonal growth cone. Expressed in several structures, including distal tip cell; excretory canal; head neurons; motor neurons; and somatic nervous system. Is an ortholog of human UNC5A (unc-5 netrin receptor A); UNC5B (unc-5 netrin receptor B); and UNC5C (unc-5 netrin receptor C).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
