DPY-3

CELE_EGAP7.1, dpy-12, EGAP7.1

dpy-3 encodes a cuticular collagen; along with dpy-2, dpy-7, dpy-8, and dpy-10, dpy-3 is required postembryonically for annular furrow formation and/or maintenance; specifically, DPY-3 activity is required for proper assembly of the DPY-7 collagen into the mature extracellular matrix; during each cuticle synthetic period, dpy-3 mRNA is expressed approximately four hours prior to the secretion of new cuticle.
