C. elegans avoids toxin-producing Streptomyces using a seven transmembrane domain chemosensory receptor

Predators and prey co-evolve, each maximizing their own fitness, but the effects of predator–prey interactions on cellular and molecular machinery are poorly understood. Here, we study this process using the predator Caenorhabditis elegans and the bacterial prey Streptomyces, which have evolved a po...
