- Description
- glb-1 encodes a globin; glb-1 transcription is uninduced by anoxia, but repressed by DAF-2 signalling in a DAF-16 dependent manner; glb-1 is expressed in distal germline, late embryonic cells that are probably hypodermal precursors, and young adults; glb-1 transcription is lower in L3 larvae than in adults, while in adults it is higher than that of most other globins; glb-1 has no obvious function in mass RNAi assays.
