Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The migration of gonadal leader cells (DTCs) is regulated by the extracellular matrix (ECM) as well as by their cytoskeleton in C. elegans. In this study, we found that GON-1 (matrix metalloprotease) and fibulin-1 (ECM molecule) act antagonistically to regulate the metabolism of type IV collagen and that VAB-10, a cytoskeletal linker protein, acts in cell and nuclear migration through regulating polarized outgrowth of DTC microtubules. We also showed that MIG-39, a nuclear protein, acts with Rho family GTPases to halt DTC migration.
