Transcription regulatory networks in Caenorhabditis elegans

Gene

Public Gene Name
Y116A8C.5  
Sequence Name
Y116A8C.5  
WB ID
WBGene00013786  
Description
Y116A8C.5 encodes a neprilysin; neprilysins are thermolysin-like zinc metallopeptidases, found on the outer surface of animal cells, that negatively regulate small signalling peptides (e.g., enkephalin, tachykinin, insulin, and natriuretic peptides) by cleaving them; Y116A8C.5 has no clear orthologs in other organisms.
