The paper identifies an ion transporter gene, nhx-6, as a causative target of RNA binding proteins exc-7 and mbl-1, whose inhibition extends lifespan in C. elegans.

This study shows that a sas-6(L69T) mutation in C. elegans disrupts centrosome duplication, ciliogenesis, and dendrite morphogenesis, contributing to microcephaly mechanisms.

This study identifies a shared role for mec-2 and Stoml3 in olfactory behavior across C. elegans and mice, showing that they are required for odor discrimination but not odor detection.
