Research Abstract |
An ADAMTS family protease MIG-17 is recruited to the gonadal basement membrane in a prodomain-dependent manner, where it is activated to control gonadal leader cell migration in Caenorhabditis elegans. We found that fibulin-1 and type IV collagen act downstream of MIG-17 to recruit nidogen and that type IV collagen also activates a nidogen-independent pathway for directional control of leader cell migration.
