WormMine: RNAi WBRNAi00078064

• WormBase ID: WBRNAi00078064
• Genotype: egl-17>mrfp::rde-1; rde-1(ne219)
• Remark: The genetic background, egl-17>mrfp::rde-1; rde-1(ne219), causes primary vulval precursor cell cell-specific RNAi-mediated knockdown. Because in the unc-6(ev400) mutant, the anchor cell fails to invade, the authors suggest this means that UNC-6 is not the vulval cue, but rather a VNC-derived signal that promotes anchor cell invasion.

Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0001652	anchor cell invasion variant	Any variation in the process by which the gonad anchor cell makes contact with vulval cells in order to create a uterine-vulval connection. In C. elegans, this includes the loss of the basement membranes between these cells and the crossing of the basolateral portion of the anchor cell through this gap.
