Type IV Collagen Is Detectable in Most, but Not All, Basement Membranes of Caenorhabditis elegans and Assembles on Tissues That Do Not Express It
Type IV collagen in Caenorhabditis elegans is produced by two essential genes, emb-9 and let-2, which encode α1- and α2-like chains, respectively. The distribution of EMB-9 and LET-2 chains has been characterized using chain-specific antisera. The chains colocalize, suggesting that they may function...
