Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionefa-6 encodes a putative guanine nucleotide exchange factor that inhibits DHC-1 in vivo; EFA-6's human orthologs are the pleckstrin and Sec7 domain proteins PSD/TYL/cytohesin-1 (OMIM:602327), PSD2, PSD3, and PSD4; efa-6(RNAi) suppresses the lethality of conditional dhc-1 mutations, as well as the spindle length and cytokinesis defects of dhc-1(or195), indicating that EFA-6 negatively regulates dynein; EFA-6 is localized to nonpolarized cell cortex in oocytes and early one-cell zygotes, to anterior cell cortex in one-cell embryos after pseudocleavage, and to the interface of AB and P1 blastomeres, subsequently disappearing in four-cell embryos; EFA-6 has a central Sec7 domain predicted to activate guanine-nucleotide exchange in ARF1, and a C-terminal pleckstrin-homology domain predicted to activate the Sec7 domain when binding phosphatidylinositol.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00028540

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic nuclear membrane disassembly; regulation of cellular component organization; and regulation of mitotic centrosome separation. Located in cell cortex; microtubule minus-end; and plasma membrane. Expressed in U.la; U.lp; and linker cell. Is an ortholog of human PSD (pleckstrin and Sec7 domain containing).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (25)
RemarkMap 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
