kin-18

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in feeding behavior; regulation of meiosis I; and regulation of nematode pharyngeal pumping. Located in cell cortex. Expressed in several structures, including alimentary muscle; excretory cell; intestine; nerve ring; and pharyngeal-intestinal valve. Is an ortholog of human TAOK1 (TAO kinase 1); TAOK2 (TAO kinase 2); and TAOK3 (TAO kinase 3).

M05D6.2

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to be involved in signal transduction. Is an ortholog of human TCP11 (t-complex 11); TCP11L1 (t-complex 11 like 1); and TCP11L2 (t-complex 11 like 2).

Tao

Drosophila melanogaster

Tao (Tao) encodes a Ser/Thr kinase belonging to the Mst/Ste20 family. It is implicated in the Hippo and PAR-1 pathways. It contributes to restriction of tissue growth during development, regulation of microtubule dynamics, neuronal polarity, neural development, ethanol-stimulated behavioral response, and apoptosis.

mam-1

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of T cell activation and regulation of T cell migration. Predicted to be located in membrane.

C35B8.3

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Is an ortholog of human TCAIM (T cell activation inhibitor, mitochondrial).

Schip1

Drosophila melanogaster

Schwannomin interacting protein 1 (Schip1) encodes a protein that is involved in negative regulation of organ growth by promoting the Hippo signaling pathway. It binds to the products of ex and Tao, activating the phosphorylation of the kinase encoded by hpo.

C38H2.2

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable glycoprotein-N-acetylgalactosamine 3-beta-galactosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein glycosylation. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in several structures, including tail. Is an ortholog of human C1GALT1 (core 1 synthase, glycoprotein-N-acetylgalactosamine 3-beta-galactosyltransferase 1).

tbx-40

Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell fate specification and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of chromatin. Expressed in phasmid neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Abruzzo-Erickson syndrome; X-linked cleft palate with or without ankyloglossia; and bone disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of several human genes including TBX15 (T-box transcription factor 15); TBX4 (T-box transcription factor 4); and TBX6 (T-box transcription factor 6).
