Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionlim-8 encodes proteins containing one PDZ and one LIM domain; in vitro binding and yeast two-hybrid assays indicate that LIM-8 can physically interact with myosin heavy chain A (MYO-3) as well as with UNC-96 and UNC-97, suggesting that LIM-8 is part of a structural component that links membrane attachment proteins to myosin thick filaments; lim-8(RNAi) in a hypersensitive rrf-3 background results in partially penetrant paralysis at mid-larval stages of development; a lim-8::gfp promoter fusion is expressed in pharyngeal and body wall muscles, as well as in vulva, spermathecae, anal sphincter and depressor muscles, head neurons, gonadal sheath, and the excretory canal; staining with LIM-8 antibodies reveals that in body wall muscle LIM-8 localizes, at least partially, to M-lines, around which myosin thick filaments are organized.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00030924

Automated_descriptionEnables protein domain specific binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of stress fiber assembly and regulation of focal adhesion assembly. Located in M band. Expressed in excretory canal; head neurons; non-striated muscle; spermatheca; and vulva. Is an ortholog of human LIMCH1 (LIM and calponin homology domains 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

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
