Genes affecting sensitivity to serotonin in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1996

Schafer W R, Sanchez B M, Kenyon C J

Abstract excerpt

Regulating the response of a postsynaptic cell to neurotransmitter is an important mechanism for controlling synaptic strength, a process critical to learning. We have begun to define and characterize genes that may control sensitivity to the neurotransmitter serotonin in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans by identifying serotonin-hypersensitive mutants. We reported previously that mutations in the gene unc-2,...
