Abstract excerpt
The Caenorhabditis briggsae homologue of the Caenorhabditis elegans pag-3 gene was cloned and sequenced. When transformed into a C. elegans pag-3 mutant, the C. briggsae pag-3 gene rescued the pag-3 reverse kinker and lethargic phenotypes. The C. elegans pag-3 gene fused to lacZ was expressed in the same pattern in C. elegans and C. briggsae. Unlike many gene homologues compared between C. elegans and C....
