Body Size Regulation via BMP Signaling in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
… the course of our investigation, we identified cuticle collagen genes as hypodermal transcriptional targets of DBL-1 signaling that act as effectors of body size regulation. We have identified positive (col-41), negative (col-141, co-142), and dose-sensitive regulators (rol-6) of body size. In …

Characterisation of quiescin-sulfhydryl oxidase and nematode astacin mutants using functional studies in caenorhabditis elegans.
… elegans, the basement membrane and the cuticle. The cuticle of C. elegans, like other nematodes is composed largely of collagen-like proteins, with the trimeric collagenous proteins forming approximately 80% of the cuticle. Cuticle collagens are believed to be highly processed in a …

Transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of Ascaris suum larvae during their hepato-tracheal migration
… 60% of the total transcription in each stage, cuticle collagens were by far the most abundant gene family. The analysis also identified a set of interesting stage-specific genes, such as venom allergen, chitinase, thioredoxin and cecropin, with a potentially important role in the host-parasite …
