The nervous system plays a critical role in the regulation of animal body sizes. In Caenorhabditis elegans, an amine neurotransmitter, dopamine, is required for the tactile perception of food and food-dependent behavioral changes, while its role in development is unknown. In this study, we show that dopamine negatively regulates body size through a D2-like dopamine receptor, DOP-3, in C. elegans....
The neurotransmitter dopamine regulates locomotion and egg laying in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. We have cloned a cDNA encoding the C. elegans G protein-coupled receptor (CeDOP1). The deduced amino acid sequence of the cloned cDNA shows high sequence similarities with D1-like dopamine receptors from other species. Three splice variants that differ in the length of the predicted third intracellular...
