Muscle arm development in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jul 2005

Dixon Scott J, Roy Peter J

Abstract excerpt

In several types of animals, muscle cells use membrane extensions to contact motor axons during development. To better understand the process of membrane extension in muscle cells, we investigated the development of Caenorhabditis elegans muscle arms, which extend to motor axons and form the postsynaptic element of the neuromuscular junction. We found that muscle arm development is a highly regulated process: the...
