New Matrix Proteins Found in Nematode Skin

Our report on the discovery of a new suite of extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules was published in the latest issue of Molecular Biology of the Cell. The report shows how a set of unconventional extracellular proteins, called the MLTN family, play a critical role in development of the model nematode C. elegans. Related ECM fibrils may contribute to the strength […]
