Unraveling the mechanisms of synapse formation and axon regeneration: the awesome power of C. elegans genetics.

Science China. Life sciences - 1 Nov 2015

Jin YiShi

Abstract excerpt

Since Caenorhabditis elegans was chosen as a model organism by Sydney Brenner in 1960's, genetic studies in this organism have been instrumental in discovering the function of genes and in deciphering molecular signaling network. The small size of the organism and the simple nervous system enable the complete reconstruction of the first connectome. The stereotypic developmental program and the anatomical...
