- Description
- sulp-1 encodes one of eight C. elegans members of the sulfate permease family of anion transporters; by homology, SULP-1 is predicted to function as an anion transporter that regulates cellular pH and volume via transmembrane movement of electrolytes and fluids; a sulp-1::GFP transcriptional fusion is expressed strongly in several neurons, weakly in hypodermal cells and the intestine, and very faintly in the excretory cell and body wall muscle.
