mig-2(mu28);max-2(nv162) double mutants exhibited a similar hypersensitivity to copper as the individual mig-2(mu28) and max-2(nv162) mutants suggesting that mig-2 and max-2 act in the same pathway.
mild hmr-1 RNAi (feeding with diluted bacteria) caused severe epidermal phenotypes and embryonic arrest of ulp-2(gk916250) hypomorph (Thompson et al., 2013), which otherwise developed normally.
"MAX-1 and UNC-5 do not exhibit strong physical interactions."; "We detected interaction be tween the cytoplasmic domain of UNC-5 and a large portion of MAX-1 that includes the FERM domain at low temperature but not at high temperature."
