Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmua-6 encodes an essential intermediate filament protein (MUA-6/IFA-2) that is coexpressed with the essential IF protein IFB-1; MUA-6 is required for hypodermal integrity and for lasting attachment of muscles to the body wall; MUA-6 is also required for normal positioning of excretory canals and muscles; MUA-6 forms heteropolymeric intermediate filaments in vitro with an equimolar mixture of IFB-1; mua-6 is transcribed from L1 larval to adult stages; MUA-6 resides in main body hypodermal desmosomes, but not in seam cells.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001981

Automated_descriptionPredicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Involved in cell-cell adhesion. Located in hemidesmosome. Expressed in hypodermis; touch receptor neurons; uterus; and ventral cord neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in partial lipodystrophy; primary autosomal recessive microcephaly; and progressive myoclonus epilepsy 9. Is an ortholog of human LMNB2 (lamin B2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
