WormMine: Gene WBGene00006586

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00006586
• Gene Name: tni-4
• Sequence Name: W03F8.1
• Brief Description: tni-4 encodes one of the four elegans troponin I proteins; tni-4 is required for the normal development of the pharynx during embryonic development; TNI-4 interacts only with the pharyngeal troponin C; tni-4 is expressed exclusively in the pharyngeal muscles.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables troponin C binding activity. Involved in embryo development and nematode pharyngeal pumping. Located in sarcomere. Expressed in pharyngeal muscle cell and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthrogryposis multiplex congenita; distal arthrogryposis type 2B1; and intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple). Is an ortholog of human TNNI1 (troponin I1, slow skeletal type); TNNI2 (troponin I2, fast skeletal type); and TNNI3 (troponin I3, cardiac type).
