Mechanisms for the control of body size by a G-kinase and a downstream TGFbeta signal pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genes to cells : devoted to molecular & cellular mechanisms - 1 Jan 2004

Nagamatsu Yasuko, Ohshima Yasumi

Abstract excerpt

We recently showed that egl-4 mutants in Caenorhabditis elegans have a much larger body size and that the egl-4 gene encodes cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases (G-kinases). Cell sizes, but not cell numbers, in the major organs are increased in the mutants. Genetic interaction studies suggest th...
