Public Gene Name

Sequence Name

WB ID

WBGene00009325  

Description

F32B6.11 encodes a small (140-residue) protein, with a single putative transmembrane domain, that is orthologous to Drosophila INAF-B; sequence conservation of INAF-B and its metazoan homologs is highest in a 32-residue motif corresponding to its predicted transmembrane domain; by orthology with INAF-B, F32B6.11 is expected to be an auxillary subunit of TRP channels such as OSM-9, and F32B6.11 expression is enriched in motor neurons; however, F32B6.11 has no obvious function in mass RNAi assays.
