Genetic pathways that regulate ageing in model organisms
Searches for genes involved in the ageing process have been made in genetically tractable model organisms such as yeast, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanoga...
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...
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...
<i>daf-16</i> : An HNF-3/forkhead Family Member That Can Function to Double the Life-Span of <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
The wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans nematode ages rapidly, undergoing development, senescence, and death in less than 3 weeks. In contrast, mutants with reduced activity of the...
Heterochronic Mutants of the Nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
Mutations in the Caenorhabditis elegans genes lin-14 , lin-28 , and lin-29 cause heterochronic developmental defects: the timing of specific developmental events in several tiss...
