Novel and conserved protein macoilin is required for diverse neuronal functions in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Neural signals are processed in nervous systems of animals responding to variable environmental stimuli. This study shows that a novel and highly conserved protein, macoilin (MACO-1), plays an essential role in diverse neural functions in Caenorhabditis elegans. maco-1 mutants showed abnormal behavi...
