COG-1

WormBase ID: WBGene00000584

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human NKX6-2 (NK6 homeobox 2). Exhibits repressing transcription factor binding activity. Is involved in several processes, including neuron development involved in amphid sensory organ development; oviposition; and regulation of gene expression. Is expressed in several structures, including egg-laying apparatus; head neurons; male-specific anatomical entity; phasmid sensillum; and spermathecal-uterine junction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene are implicated in double outlet right ventricle and spastic ataxia 8.
