An analysis of UNC-52/perlecan domain IV immunoglobulin repeats in myofilament assembly of Caenorhabditis elegans

The unc-52(II) gene encodes the nematode homologue of perlecan, a mammalian basement membrane (BM) proteoglycan. UNC-52 is essential for proper myofilament assembly and muscle attachment in C. elegans. The longest predicted UNC-52 protein has five structural domains, including a LDL-receptor-like...
