Effect of a neuropeptide gene on behavioral states in Caenorhabditis elegans egg-laying.

Genetics - 1 Mar 2000

Waggoner L E, Hardaker L A, Golik S, Schafer W R

Abstract excerpt

Egg-laying behavior in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans involves fluctuation between alternative behavioral states: an inactive state, during which eggs are retained in the uterus, and an active state, during which eggs are laid in bursts. We have found that the flp-1 gene, which encodes a group of structurally related neuropeptides, functions specifically to promote the switch from the inactive to the active...
