Gene Review:
sqt-1 - Protein SQT-1
Caenorhabditis elegans
- The sqt-1 gene of C. elegans encodes a collagen critical for organismal morphogenesis. Kramer, J.M., Johnson, J.J., Edgar, R.S., Basch, C., Roberts, S. Cell (1988)
- In vitro mutagenesis of Caenorhabditis elegans cuticle collagens identifies a potential subtilisin-like protease cleavage site and demonstrates that carboxyl domain disulfide bonding is required for normal function but not assembly. Yang, J., Kramer, J.M. Mol. Cell. Biol. (1994)
- The Caenorhabditis elegans rol-6 gene, which interacts with the sqt-1 collagen gene to determine organismal morphology, encodes a collagen. Kramer, J.M., French, R.P., Park, E.C., Johnson, J.J. Mol. Cell. Biol. (1990)
- Proteolytic processing of Caenorhabditis elegans SQT-1 cuticle collagen is inhibited in right roller mutants whereas cross-linking is inhibited in left roller mutants. Yang, J., Kramer, J.M. J. Biol. Chem. (1999)
- Analysis of mutations in the sqt-1 and rol-6 collagen genes of Caenorhabditis elegans. Kramer, J.M., Johnson, J.J. Genetics (1993)
- Increased or decreased levels of Caenorhabditis elegans lon-3, a gene encoding a collagen, cause reciprocal changes in body length. Nyström, J., Shen, Z.Z., Aili, M., Flemming, A.J., Leroi, A., Tuck, S. Genetics (2002)
- Molecular and genetic analyses of the Caenorhabditis elegans dpy-2 and dpy-10 collagen genes: a variety of molecular alterations affect organismal morphology. Levy, A.D., Yang, J., Kramer, J.M. Mol. Biol. Cell (1993)
