Official Symbol: acn-1
Official Full Name: Inactive angiotensin-converting enzyme-related protein
Primary source: WormBase:WBGene00000039
Locus tag: CELE_C42D8.5
See related: AllianceGenome:WB:WBGene00000039
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans (strain: Bristol N2)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Nematoda; Chromadorea; Rhabditida; Rhabditina; Rhabditomorpha; Rhabditoidea; Rhabditidae; Peloderinae; Caenorhabditis
Summary: Predicted to enable metallopeptidase activity. Involved in ecdysis, collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within with a negative effect on plasma membrane fusion. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in excretory gland cell; hypodermis; vulva; and in male. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Coronavirus infectious disease (multiple); artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); heart valve disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including ACE2 (angiotensin converting enzyme 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
