Myotactin, a novel hypodermal protein involved in muscle-cell adhesion in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of cell biology - 9 Aug 1999

Hresko M C, Schriefer L A, Shrimankar P, Waterston R H

Abstract excerpt

In C. elegans, assembly of hypodermal hemidesmosome-like structures called fibrous organelles is temporally and spatially coordinated with the assembly of the muscle contractile apparatus, suggesting that signals are exchanged between these cell types to position fibrous organelles correctly. Myotactin, a protein recognized by monoclonal antibody MH46, is a candidate for such a signaling molecule. The antigen,...
