Widespread employment of conserved C. elegans homeobox genes in neuronal identity specification

Molly B. Reilly, Tessa Tekieli, Cyril Cros, G. Robert Aguilar, James Lao, Itai Antoine Toker, Berta Vidal, Eduardo Leyva‐Díaz, Abhishek Bhattacharya, Steven J. Cook, Jayson J. Smith, Ismar Kovacevic, Burcu Gülez, Robert W. Fernandez, Elisabeth F. Bradford, , Oliver Hobert

The paper investigates the role of homeobox genes in neuronal identity specification in C. elegans, finding that 111 of 118 neuron classes require homeobox genes for proper differentiation.

The enteric nervous system of C. elegans is specified by the Sine Oculis-like homeobox gene ceh-34

Berta Vidal, Burcu Gülez, Wen Xi Cao, Eduardo Leyva‐Díaz, Molly B. Reilly, Tessa Tekieli, Oliver Hobert

This study identifies ceh-34 as a key gene specifying enteric nervous system differentiation in C. elegans, showing its role in neuron type-specific programs and circuit assembly.
