IRK-1 Potassium Channels Mediate Peptidergic Inhibition of Caenorhabditis elegans Serotonin Neurons via a Gₒ Signaling Pathway

To identify molecular mechanisms that function in G-protein signaling, we have performed molecular genetic studies of a simple behavior of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, egg laying, which is driven by a pair of serotonergic neurons, the hermaphrodite-specific neurons (HSNs). The activity of th...
