Using expression profiles of Caenorhabditis elegans neurons to identify genes that mediate synaptic connectivity.
Synaptic wiring of neurons in Caenorhabditis elegans is largely invariable between animals. It has been suggested that this feature stems from genetically encoded molecular markers that guide the neurons in the final stage of synaptic formation. Identifying these markers and unraveling the logic by...
