Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptioncpb-1 encodes a cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding (CPEB) protein homolog involved in two steps of spermatogenesis; two CPEB proteins have distinct functions in spermatogenesis, with FOG-1 specifying sperm cell fate, and CPB-1 conversely executing that decision, being required for progression through meiosis; cpb-1(RNAi) spermatocytes fail to undergo meiotic cell divisions; CPB-1 protein is present in the germ line just prior to overt spermatogenesis, but once sperm differentiation begins, CPB-1 disappears; CPB-1 physically interacts with EBF, which, like CPEB, regulates genes by binding the 3' UTRs of mRNAs; while CPB-1 is required for spermatogenesis, it is dispensable for oogenesis; this is in contrast to CPEBs in vertebrates (Xenopus), arthropods (Drosophila), and molluscs (Spisula), which all participate in oogenesis.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004396

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity; ribosome binding activity; and translation regulator activity, nucleic acid binding. Involved in meiotic cell cycle and spermatogenesis. Located in cytoplasm. Expressed in Z2; Z3; and germ line. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in portal hypertension and primary biliary cholangitis. Is an ortholog of human CPEB2 (cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Remarksequence connection from [Luitjens C, Wickens MP]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
