Substrate-recognition component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein)-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex (By similarity). Plays a role in regulating the entry into the dauer state (Ref.3, PubMed:30460068). In hermaphrodites, may play a role in modulating the rate of defecation (Ref.3, PubMed:30460068). Component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein)-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Expressed in neuroglial cells such as the socket cell and sheath cell, neurosecretory motor neurons and regions around the pharynx and anus. RNAi-mediated knockdown reduces the rate of dauer formation following treatment with daumone, a pheromone which induces the dauer state (Ref.3, PubMed:30460068). RNAi-mediated knockdown results in a 10-20% increase in the average time interval between defecations in hermaphrodites (Ref.3, PubMed:30460068).
