Legacy_information[Gatewood B, Bucher EA] mg36 is lethal, abnormal muscle positioning.
[C.elegansII] mg36 : lethal, embryonic arrest at 3-fold, defective muscle attachment, abnormal hypodermis; muscle cells collapse from ventral side, retract from head and tail; some embryos arrested earlier. Mosaic analysis indicates focus in AB. OA>5: ar60, mg23, mg36, s2433 etc. [BC; EE; GR]
[Stewart HI, Chamberlin HM] Homozygous s2433 arrest at a mid larval stage.

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell adhesion. Located in hemidesmosome. Part of hemidesmosome associated protein complex. Expressed in body wall musculature; hypodermis; pharynx; touch receptor neurons; and vulval cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in multiple epiphyseal dysplasia 5 and osteoarthritis. Is an ortholog of human MATN2 (matrilin 2) and MATN3 (matrilin 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
