Genes affecting the activity of nicotinic receptors involved in Caenorhabditis elegans egg-laying behavior.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2001

Abstract excerpt

Egg-laying behavior in Caenorhabditis elegans is regulated by multiple neurotransmitters, including acetylcholine and serotonin. Agonists of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors such as nicotine and levamisole stimulate egg laying; however, the genetic and molecular basis for cholinergic neurotransmission in the egg-laying circuitry is not well understood. Here we describe the egg-laying phenotypes of eight...
