- Description
- nhr-111 encodes a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily; by homology, NHR-111 is predicted to function as a ligand-dependent transcriptional regulator, but as loss of nhr-111 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in any abnormalities, the precise role of NHR-111 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; an nhr-111 reporter construct is expressed in embryos and early larvae in a pair of neurons in the ventral ganglion of the head and in two cells that may be the somatic gonad precursors.
