- Description
- unc-55 encodes a nuclear receptor that is most closely related to Drosophila Seven-up and the vertebrate COUP (chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter) transcription factors; unc-55 activity is required for the VD motor neurons to adopt their normal synaptic pattern; unc-55 is expressed in a number of neurons, including the VD motor neurons.
