UNC-62

WormBase ID: WBGene00006796

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human MEIS1 (Meis homeobox 1) and MEIS2 (Meis homeobox 2). Is predicted to have DNA binding activity. Is involved in mesodermal cell fate specification; muscle cell differentiation; and positive regulation of translation. Localizes to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; neurons; reproductive system; ventral nerve cord; and vulval precursor cell. Is used to study leukemia and restless legs syndrome.

Reporter verification: Verified by PCR and sequencing
