MLT-11 is necessary for <i>C. elegans</i> embryogenesis and conserved sequences play distinct roles in cuticle structure

2025-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Apical extracellular matrices (aECMs) are associated with many epithelia and many form a protective layer against biotic and abiotic threats in the environment. Despite their importance, we lack a deep understanding of their structure and dynamics in development and disease. C. elegans molting offers a powerful entry point to understanding developmentally programmed aECM remodeling. Here, we sh...
