Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the sqt-1 and rol-6 cuticle collagen genes of Caenorhabditis elegans can cause dramatic alterations in organismal morphology. Genetic interactions and similarities in sequence and mutant phenotypes suggest that the sqt-1 and rol-6 collagen chains may physically interact. We show here that the sqt-1 and rol-6 genes are coordinately expressed during formation of the L2, L3, L4, adult, and L2d stage...
