Abstract excerpt

The Caenorhabditis elegans male must integrate various environmental cues to ensure proper execution of mating. One step of male mating, the insertion of the male copulatory spicules into its mate, requires UNC-103 ERG (ether-a-go-go-related gene)-like K+ channels. unc-103(lf) alleles cause males to protract their spicules spontaneously in the absence of mating cues. To identify proteins that work with UNC-103,...
