Summary: Involved in positive regulation of gene expression. Located in apical plasma membrane; apicolateral plasma membrane; and nucleus. Is expressed in intestine and pharynx. Used to study cerebral cavernous malformation. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebral cavernous malformation and cerebral cavernous malformation 1. Orthologous to human KRIT1 (KRIT1 ankyrin repeat containing). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Study define the apoptotic pathway downstream of KRI-1 by conducting a forward genetic mutagenesis screen to restore ionizing radiation-induced apoptosis in kri-1 mutant worms. Proteomic analysis of KRI-1 binding partners identifies the previously uncharacterized protein K07A9.3, which is the ortholog of human CCM2 and a regulator of the ERK-5 pathway.

Kri-1 is required to activate DNA damage-dependent cell death of germ cells independently of cep-1/p53.
Title: Cell-nonautonomous regulation of C. elegans germ cell death by kri-1.
Data show that the reproductive system communicates with the intestine through lipophilic-hormone signaling and that a gene called kri-1 is likely to act in the intestine to promote DAF-16 nuclear localization in response to this signal.
