AI Article Synopsis

  • LIN-11 is an important transcription factor involved in the development of the vulva, uterus, and neurons.
  • Researchers discovered a reference allele that features a significant 15,900 base pair deletion impacting two additional protein-coding genes, ZC247.1 and ZC247.2.
  • A commonly used allele has a smaller 288 base pair deletion located in an intron, which modifies the splice acceptor site.

Article Abstract

The LIM homeodomain transcription factor LIN-11 is a key regulator of vulva, uterine, and neuron development in Multiple alleles of are available, but none had been sequenced. We found that the reference allele, is a 15900 bp deletion that also affects two other protein-coding genes, ZC247.1 and ZC247.2. The frequently used allele is a 288bp deletion located in an intron and affecting the splice acceptor site.
