osm-3

Symbol: osm-3
Name: OSMotic avoidance abnormal
Entrez gene ID: 177141
Ensembl gene ID: M02B7.3
Species: Worm (Taxid: 6239)

Functional description:
Encodes a kinesin motor domain; May have a role during neurogenesis and axonal transport. [UniProt]

Observation:

Recessive osm-3 loss-of-function alleles can extend lifespan by 100%, which is suppressed by gonad ablation but not germ line ablation [10617200].

osm-3 mutants do not form dauers in response to starvation and have defective cilia [1732156] as well as are defective in chemosensory response and chemotaxis [7714894].
