| Genetic Position | I 2.04 |
| Physical Location | ZK524 |
| Sequence |
Genomic DNA: Genbank Accession Z14067 mRNA: Genbank Accession Z14066 Protein: Accession 401112 |
| Cloned By | L'Hernault Lab |
| Homologies | presenilin family of proteins associated with familial early onset Alzheimers disease (human S182 and C. elegans SEL-12) |
| Mutant Alleles |
hc78 , hc81 , q347 (deletion null) |
| Effect of Mutations | Hermaphrodites and males produce primary spermatocytes that contain four haploid nuclei; males retain these spermatocytes while hermaphrodites resorb them when oogenesis begins; fibrous body-membranous organelle formation disrupted. |
