摘要
VBP-1 has been isolated as a novel protein binding to the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene product. The fundamental function of the gene was examined in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). The C. elegans VBP-1 gene was expressed in adults only in the gonads and was also expressed in early stage embryos. Double-stranded RNA interference (RNAi) against VBP-1 resulted in an arrest of embryogenesis at morula stages. This suggests that the VBP-1 product is necessary for morphogenesis.
