Predicted to enable adenylate cyclase activity. Involved in several processes, including locomotory exploration behavior; memory; and regulation of defecation. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Expressed in body wall musculature; ganglia; neurons; ventral nerve cord; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in mood disorder. Is an ortholog of human ADCY9 (adenylate cyclase 9).
Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity; G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding activity; and GTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of protein kinase C signaling; nematode pharyngeal pumping; and positive regulation of oocyte maturation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of heterotrimeric G-protein complex. Expressed in several structures, including excretory cell; intestine; neurons; non-striated muscle; and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including ACTH-independent macronodular adrenal hyperplasia 1; Alzheimer's disease; dystonia 25; and pseudohypoparathyroidism (multiple). Is an ortholog of human GNAL (G protein subunit alpha L).
