The Rho-GEF PIX-1 directs assembly or stability of lateral attachment structures between muscle cells
PIX proteins activate the small GTPases Rac and Cdc42, and are known to have numerous functions in a variety of cell types. Using a genetic screen in C. elegans, the authors find that PIX-1 is required for the assembly or stability of integrin adhesion complexes between muscle cells.
