Cloning and developmental expression analysis of ltd-1, the Caenorhabditis elegans homologue of the mouse kyphoscoliosis (ky) gene.

We have characterized the developmental expression pattern of the Caenorhabditis elegans homologue of the mouse ky gene. The Ky protein has a putative key function in muscle development and has homologues in invertebrates, fungi and a cyanobacterium. The C. elegans Ky homologue gene has been named l...

description We have characterized the developmental expression pattern of the Caenorhabditis elegans homologue of the mouse ky gene. The Ky protein has a putative key function in muscle development and has homologues in invertebrates, fungi and a cyanobacterium. The C. elegans Ky homologue gene has been named ltd-1 for LIM and transglutaminase domains gene. The LTD-1::GFP construct is expressed in developing hypodermal cells from the twofold stage embryo through adulthood. These data define the ltd-1 gene as a novel marker for C. elegans epithelial cell development.
