Optogenetic long-term manipulation of behavior and animal development

, 2011
Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) is widely used for rapid photodepolarization of neurons, yet, as it requires high-intensity blue light for activation, it is not suited for long-term in vivo applications, e.g.

Operon conservation and the evolution of trans-splicing in the phylum Nematoda [PDF]

, 2006
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is unique among model animals in that many of its genes are cotranscribed as polycistronic pre-mRNAs from operons.

Nanopore direct RNA sequencing and the epitranscriptome: Advances in mapping native RNA landscapes

iMeta, EarlyView.
Nanopore direct RNA sequencing advances transcriptomics by capturing full‐length transcripts and multiple RNA modifications; this review details its principles, workflows, tools, applications, challenges, and future research potential. Abstract Nanopore direct RNA sequencing (DRS) has transformed transcriptomics by enabling single‐molecule, long‐read ...

Phylogenomic timetree-calibrated speciation clocks for Caenorhabditis nematodes reveal slow but disproportionate accumulation of post-zygotic reproductive isolation.

PLoS Genetics
Reproductive isolation and genomic divergence both accumulate over time in the formation and persistence of distinct biological species. The pace of "speciation clocks" quantified with pre-zygotic and post-zygotic reproductive isolation, however, differs

Caenorhabditis elegans experiences leave behavioral modifications on great-grandchildren

, 2018
The study of epigenetics explores the idea of how one’s behavior is due to their DNA or the way they are raised. We developed a paradigm to test behavioral epigenetics in the microscopic nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans. C.

Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Combinatorial Roles of Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans and Heparan Sulfates in Caenorhabditis elegans Neural Development

, 2014
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) play critical roles in the development and adult physiology of all metazoan organisms. Most of the known molecular interactions of HSPGs are attributed to the structurally highly complex heparan sulfate (HS) glycans.
