[C.elegansII] el : strong dumpy. Mosaic analysis indicates focus in hyp7, also required in other hypodermal syncytia. Suppresses some alleles of glp-1.ES3 ME1. OA>20: e6, e830xri, e874pdi, e1177icr,f14, s513 etc. High forward mutation frequency. [Brenner 1974; Hedgecock and Herman 1995; EL]
dpy-1 encodes a cuticulin; DPY-1 activity is required for normal body length and alae formation; dpy-1's site of action is localized to the hyp7 syncytium, based on mosaic analysis.
