In unc-78 mutants, striated actin filaments are disordered, and large actin aggregates abnormally appear. | ||||||
UNC-60B, a muscle-specific actin depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin isoform, is mislocalized to these aggregates; in wild-type animals UNC-60B is found in diffuse cytoplasm and along myofibrils. | ||||||
unc-78 mutant phenotypes are similar in embryonic versus adult muscles. | ||||||
