Caenorhabditis elegans twist plays an essential role in non-striated muscle development.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 May 2000

Corsi A K, Kostas S A, Fire A, Krause M

Abstract excerpt

The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Twist plays a role in mesodermal development in both invertebrates and vertebrates. In an effort to understand the role of the unique Caenorhabditis elegans Twist homolog, hlh-8, we analyzed mesodermal development in animals with a deletion in the hlh-8 locus. This deletion was predicted to represent a null allele because the HLH domain is missing and the...
