Abstract: In C. elegans, the behavioral response to touch and the underlying molecular actors are thoroughly studied. However, it is still debated which and how many of several co-expressed pore-forming subunits assemble into a functional, multimeric… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Degenerin/Epithelial Sodium Channels (DEG/ENaCs) are a large family of animal-specific non-voltage gated ion channels, with enriched expression in neuronal and epithelial tissues. While neuronal DEG/ENaCs were originally characterized as sensory receptor channels, recent studies… read more here.
