Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The molecular mechanisms of levamisole (LEV) activity and expression of resistance remain largely unknown in parasitic nematodes. In contrast, genetic screens for mutants that survive exposure to LEV in the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans have led to the identification of...
