The <i>C. elegans</i> SMOC-1 protein acts cell non-autonomously to promote bone morphogenetic protein signaling

2018-09-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling regulates many different developmental and homeostatic processes in metazoans. The BMP pathway is conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans , and is known to regulate body size and mesoderm development. We have identified the C. elegans smoc-1 (Secreted MOdular Calcium binding protein-1) gene as a new player in the BMP pathway. smoc-1(0) null mutants have...
