Food for thought: A receptor finds its ligand

Research output: Contribution to journal › Short survey › peer-review

Abstract

In C. elegans, social and solitary feeding behavior can be determined by a single amino acid change in a G protein-coupled receptor. A new study identifies ligands for this receptor and suggests how changes in behavior evolve at the molecular level.
