Primary source: WormBase:WBGene00001196
Locus tag: CELE_M01D7.7
See related: AllianceGenome:WB:WBGene00001196
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans (strain: Bristol N2)
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Nematoda; Chromadorea; Rhabditida; Rhabditina; Rhabditomorpha; Rhabditoidea; Rhabditidae; Peloderinae; Caenorhabditis
Summary: Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity; G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding activity; and GTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to dopamine; positive regulation of protein localization; and regulation of secretion. Located in axon; cell cortex; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed widely. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sturge-Weber syndrome; autosomal dominant hypocalcemia 2; congestive heart failure; familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia 2; and familial multiple nevi flammei. Orthologous to several human genes including GNA11 (G protein subunit alpha 11). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

EGL-30 facilitates training-dependent induction of tph-1 by functional regulation of olfactory sensory neurons, which underscores the importance of sensory experience
Title: A neuronal signaling pathway of CaMKII and Gqα regulates experience-dependent transcription of tph-1.
This paper provides evidence that while goa-1 and egl-30 are important for normal daf-7 expression, mutations in these genes are not sufficient to disrupt dauer formation.
Title: Gαo and Gαq regulate the expression of daf-7, a TGFβ-like gene, in Caenorhabditis elegans.
a conserved Galphaq pathway cooperates with cell specific factors in the nervous and immune systems of Caenorhabditis elegans to produce appropriate responses to pathogen

A gain-of-function mutation in egl-30 Gqalpha was epistatic to gpc-1, suggesting the possibility that gpc-1 Ggamma may act upstream of egl-30 Gqalpha.
Title: GPC-1, a G protein gamma-subunit, regulates olfactory adaptation in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Serotonin signaling is regulated by modulating serotonin biosynthesis and Galphao and Galphaq act in the same neurons to have opposing effects on behavior, in part, by antagonistically regulating transcription of specific genes.

Results demonstrate the existence of a novel pathway for promoting epidermal growth factor-mediated vulval development that involves activation of the heterotrimeric Galphaq protein, EGL-30.
