Journal ArticleDOI

A Putative Catenin–Cadherin System Mediates Morphogenesis of the Caenorhabditis elegans Embryo

TL;DR: This putative catenin–cadherin system is not essential for general cell adhesion in the C. elegans embryo, but rather mediates specific aspects of morphogenetic cell shape change and cytoskeletal organization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cooperative regulation of AJM-1 controls junctional integrity in Caenorhabditis elegans epithelia

TL;DR: It is concluded that LET-413 and DLG-1 cooperatively control AJM-1 localization and that AJM -1 controls the integrity of a distinct apical junctional domain in C. elegans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokinesis and Midzone Microtubule Organization in Caenorhabditis elegans Require the Kinesin-like Protein ZEN-4

TL;DR: The identification of a null allele of zen-4, an MKLP1 homologue in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, is reported and it is demonstrated that ZEN-4 is essential for cytokinesis, suggesting that these microtubules are required for the completion of cytokineses.
Journal ArticleDOI

MEX-3 Is a KH Domain Protein That Regulates Blastomere Identity in Early C. elegans Embryos

TL;DR: It is shown that maternal-effect lethal mutations in the gene mex-3 cause descendants of the anterior blastomere to produce muscles by a pattern of development similar to that of a descendant of the wild-type posterior Blastomere.
Journal ArticleDOI

The VAB-1 Eph Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Functions in Neural and Epithelial Morphogenesis in C. elegans

TL;DR: It is shown that C. elegans vab-1 encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase of the Eph family, and that cell-cell interactions are required between neurons and epidermal cells for Epidermal morphogenesis.
