A conserved LIM protein that affects muscular adherens junction integrity and mechanosensory function in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of cell biology - 11 Jan 1999

Hobert O, Moerman D G, Clark K A, Beckerle M C, Ruvkun G

Abstract excerpt

We describe here the molecular and functional characterization of the Caenorhabditis elegans unc-97 gene, whose gene product constitutes a novel component of muscular adherens junctions. UNC-97 and homologues from several other species define the PINCH family, a family of LIM proteins whose modular composition of five LIM domains implicates them as potential adapter molecules. unc-97 expression is restricted to...
