Title Conserved LIM protein that affects muscular adherens junction integrity and mechanosensory function in Caenorhabditis elegans
Date 1999
Description We describe here the molecular and functional characterization of the Caenorhabditis elegans unc-97 gene, whose gene product constitutes a novel component of muscular adherens junctions. UNC-97 and homologues from several other species define the PINCH family, a family of LIM proteins whose modular composition of five LIM domains implicates them as potential adapter molecules.
