Genetic transformation of the synaptic pattern of a motoneuron class in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Feb 1995

Walthall W W, Plunkett J A

Abstract excerpt

Caenorhabditis elegans possesses two classes of inhibitory locomotory neurons, the DD and VD motoneurons (mns), and they form complementary components of a cross-inhibitory neuronal network innervating dorsal and ventral body muscles. The DD and VD mns (collectively called the D mns) share a number of morphological and neurochemical features, and mutations in a number of different genes disrupt both cell types in...
