Trio's Rho-specific GEF domain is the missing Gaq effector in C. elegans
citation_date
2007-11-01
Description
The Gaq pathway is essential for animal life and is a central pathway for driving locomotion, egg laying, and growth in Caenorhcibditis elegans, where it exerts its effects through EGL-8 (phospholipase CB [PLCB]) and at least one other effector. To find the missing effector, we performed forward genetic screens to suppress the slow growth and hyperactive behaviors of mutants with an overactive Gaq pathway.
