Journal ArticleDOI

The Million Mutation Project: A new approach to genetics in Caenorhabditis elegans

TL;DR: A nonsense suppressor is revealed as well as strains with higher levels of indels that harbor mutations in DNA repair genes and strains with abundant males associated with him mutations, providing an unprecedented genetic resource for this multicellular organism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence of an unusually large protein implicated in regulation of myosin activity in C. elegans.

TL;DR: Homologies of the sequence of twit-chin have unexpected similarities to the sequences of proteins of the immunoglobulin superfamily, cell adhesion molecules and vertebrate muscle proteins, including myosin light-chain kinase, which indicate that the protein is involved in a novel mechanism of myOSin regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

C. elegans PAT-4/ILK Functions as an Adaptor Protein within Integrin Adhesion Complexes

TL;DR: The data strengthens the emerging view that ILK functions primarily as an adaptor protein within integrin adhesion complexes and identifies UNC-112 as a new ILK binding partner.
