It is widely accepted that chitin is present in nematodes. However, its precise role in embryogenesis is unclear and it is unknown if chitin is necessary in other nematode tissues. Here, we determined the roles of chitin and the two predicted chitin synthase genes in Caenorhabditis elegans by chitin localization and gene disruption. Using a novel probe, we detected chitin in the eggshell and discovered...
Neuropeptides are used as signaling molecules in the nervous system of most organisms, including mammals. The family of FMRFamide (Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2)-like neuropeptides (FaRPs) all share an RFamide sequence at their C-termini and have been shown to have diverse functions in the central and peripheral nervous systems. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, FMRFamide-like peptides (FaRPs) are expressed...
