CUTI-1: A Novel Tetraspan Protein Involved in C. elegans CUTicle Formation and Epithelial Integrity

The nematode cuticle is a tough extracellular matrix composed primarily of cross-linked collagens and non-collagenous cuticulins. It is required for nematode motility and protection from the external environment. Little is known about how the complex process of cuticle formation has been adapted to...
