- Description
- gfl-1 encodes an ortholog of human GLIOMA-AMPLIFIED SEQUENCE-41 (GAS41; OMIM:602116, found in increased copy number in low-grade glioma); loss of GLF-1, which is predicted to associate with chromatin, results in potent suppression of the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism; GLF-1 is also similar to the transcription factors (yeast and human) AF-9 and human ENL, and thus may represent a novel class of transcription factors.
