Structures and functions of collagens in Caenorhabditis elegans.

FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology - 1 Mar 1994

Kramer J M

Abstract excerpt

Two types of collagens have been identified in Caenorhabditis elegans corresponding to two types of extracellular matrix, the cuticle and basement membranes. Cuticle collagens are encoded by a developmentally regulated family of approximately 100 genes. Mutations in cuticle collagens can produce animals that are longer or shorter than normal and/or that are helically twisted. Mutations in different collagens can...
