Conditional nmy-1 and nmy-2 alleles establish that nonmuscle myosins are required for late Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic elongation.

Genetics - 4 Sept 2024

Molnar Kelly, Suman Shashi Kumar, Eichelbrenner Jeanne, Plancke Camille N, Robin François B, Labouesse Michel

Abstract excerpt

The elongation of Caenorhabditis elegans embryos allows examination of mechanical interactions between adjacent tissues. Muscle contractions during late elongation induce the remodeling of epidermal circumferential actin filaments through mechanotransduction. Force inputs from the muscles deform circumferential epidermal actin filament, which causes them to be severed, eventually reformed, and shortened. This...
