A somatic proteoglycan controls Notch-directed germ cell fate
Notch receptor GLP-1 is required for maintaining germ cells in the C. elegans germline. Here the authors show that syndecan-1, a somatic transmembrane proteoglycan regulates expression of glp-1 and germ cell mitosis in C. elegans, by promoting calcium-dependent binding of APTF-2 to the glp-1 promote...
