WormMine: Gene WBGene00005155

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00005155
• Gene Name: srf-5
• Brief Description: srf-5 was identified as a mutation that alters the surface antigenicity of the cuticle in C. elegans; srf-5 mutations show altered binding to antibodies raised against the cuticles of wild-type worms, and lectins like wheat germ agglutinin; srf-5 mutants are resistant to infection by the nematode-specific pathogen, Microbacterium nematophilum and do not show the tail-swelling response to infection; srf-5 mutants also show an altered response in the form of increased susceptibility to nematophagous fungi.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Expressed in intestine; pharynx; rectal valve cell; and seam cell. Used to study bacterial infectious disease.
• Genetic Position: X :11.603 ±1.10119
