dpy-7

Gene
dpy-7
Protein
Cuticle collagen dpy-7
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans
Length
318 amino acids
Function
Nematode cuticles are composed largely of collagen-like proteins. The cuticle functions both as an exoskeleton and as a barrier to protect the worm from its environment. Mutations in dpy-7 affects the body shape.
Similarity
Belongs to the cuticular collagen family.
