mec-7 is a beta-tubulin gene required for the production of 15-protofilament microtubules in Caenorhabditis elegans.
In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, microtubules with 15 protofilaments are a specialized feature of six touch-receptor neurons; microtubules found in other C. elegans neuro...
Combinatorial control of touch receptor neuron expression in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
ABSTRACT Six touch receptor neurons with distinctive morphological features sense gentle touch in Caenorhabditis elegans. Previous studies have identified three genes (lin-32, u...
A transmembrane domain of the putative channel subunit MEC-4 influences mechanotransduction and neurodegeneration in C. elegans
Aberrant ion channel activity plays a causative role in several human disorders. Inappropriately regulated channel activity also appears to be the basis for neurodegeneration in...
The C. elegans cell death gene ced-3 encodes a protein similar to mammalian interleukin-1β-converting enzyme
We have cloned the C. elegans cell death gene ced-3. A ced-3 transcript is most abundant during embryogenesis, the stage during which most programmed cell deaths occur. The pred...
Genes required for the engulfment of cell corpses during programmed cell death in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Abstract After programmed cell death, a cell corpse is engulfed and quickly degraded by a neighboring cell. For degradation to occur, engulfing cells must recognize, phagocytose...
