Abstract excerpt
Four recessive mutations that affect long-range embryonic migration of the two canal-associated neurons (CANs) in C. elegans were isolated and characterized with the goal of identifying genes involved in control of directed cell movement. Mutant animals were identified initially by their "withered" tails, a phenotype associated with abnormal CAN migration; the mutants were then analyzed for abnormal cell...
