Inhibition of touch cell fate by egl-44 and egl-46 in C. elegans.

Genes & development - 15 Mar 2001

Wu J, Duggan A, Chalfie M

Abstract excerpt

In wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans, six cells develop as receptors for gentle touch. In egl-44 and egl-46 mutants, two other neurons, the FLP cells, express touch receptor-like features. egl-44 and egl-46 also affect the differentiation of other neurons including the HSN neurons, two cells needed for egg laying. egl-44 encodes a member of the transcription enhancer factor family. The product of the egl-46 gene,...
