Abstract
âºCharacterization of the expression, distribution and function of pat-12 in C. elegans. âºThe isoform PAT-12A is a novel component of C. elegans fibrous organelles. âºPAT-12A is essential for embryonic morphogenesis and fibrous organelle biogenesis. âºPAT-12A promotes the interaction of intermediate filaments with hemidesmosomes. âºPAT-12 is conserved among nematodes and may provide a target for anti-nematode drugs.
