Genes regulating touch cell development in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 May 2001

Du H, Chalfie M

Abstract excerpt

To identify genes regulating the development of the six touch receptor neurons, we screened the F(2) progeny of mutated animals expressing an integrated mec-2::gfp transgene that is expressed mainly in these touch cells. From 2638 mutated haploid genomes, we obtained 11 mutations representing 11 genes that affected the production, migration, or outgrowth of the touch cells. Eight of these mutations were in known...
