Specific collagens maintain the cuticle permeability barrier in Caenorhabditis elegans
Collagen-enriched cuticle forms the outermost layer of skin in nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The nematode’s genome encodes 177 collagens, but little is known about their role in maintaining the structure or barrier function of the cuticle. In this study, we found six permeability determining (PD)...
