Gene :

WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00016655 Gene Name  acbp-1
Sequence Name  ? C44E4.6 Brief Description  acbp-1 encodes a highly conserved protein containing a functional acyl-CoA-binding binding domain orthologous to human DBI (Diazepam Binding inhibitor) (OMIM: 125950) required for protein stability and ligand binding; acyl-CoA proteins are required for lipid droplet morphology and lipid storage function; acbp-1 mutants have reduced triglycerides, aberrant lipid droplet morphology and number in the intestine; mutants contain approximately 70% fewer but 3.8 times enlarged than that of the average lipid droplet; loss of ACBP-1 results in increased lipid chain unsaturation by 1.25 times; disruption of ACBP-1 function significantly reduces worm life span from 14 to 9 days; ACBP-1::GFP is predominantly expressed in intestine of L4 larvae.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable fatty-acyl-CoA binding activity. Involved in determination of adult lifespan and lipid storage. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence. Is an ortholog of human DBI (diazepam binding inhibitor, acyl-CoA binding protein).
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  I :-1.03673 ±0.000586

    Expr13616 At the L1 stage, acbp-3 is the most abundantly expressed gene, whereas acbp-1 and acbp- 2 are expressed at lower levels. The expression levels of acbp-4, acbp-5, acbp-6 and maa-1 are significantly lower compared with that of acbp-3. At the L4 stage, the expression level of acbp-1 is increased 5-fold compared with the L1 stage, whereas the relative expression levels of the other acbp genes remain unaltered.
