Engulfment genes cooperate with ced-3 to promote cell death in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nature - 12 Jul 2001

Abstract excerpt

Genetic studies have identified over a dozen genes that function in programmed cell death (apoptosis) in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Although the ultimate effects on cell survival or engulfment of mutations in each cell death gene have been extensively described, much less is known about how these mutations affect the kinetics of death and engulfment, or the interactions between these two processes. We...
