The mup-4 locus in Caenorhabditis elegans is essential for hypodermal integrity, organismal morphogenesis and embryonic body wall muscle position.

Genetics - 1 May 1997

Gatewood B K, Bucher E A

Abstract excerpt

mup-4 is a member of a set of genes essential for correct embryonic body wall muscle cell positions in Caenorhabditis elegans. The mup-4 phenotype is variably expressed and three discrete arrest phenotypes arise during the phase of embryonic development when the worm elongates from a ball of cells to its worm shape (organismal morphogenesis). Mutants representing two of the phenotypic classes arrest without...
