A sensory-motor neuron type mediates proprioceptive coordination of steering in C. elegans via two TRPC channels.
Animal locomotion is mediated by a sensory system referred to as proprioception. Defects in the proprioceptive coordination of locomotion result in uncontrolled and inefficient movements. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying proprioception are not fully understood. Here, we identify two tran...
