Description

Hadi Tabarraei and co-authors probe when a worm gene is truly needed in a 2023 paper. PAL-1 is a master switch for rear body build in Caenorhabditis elegans. It was lately tied to stress response as well.

The team built a worm strain with a tag that lets a plant hormone melt PAL-1 on cue. Melting it from the first larval stage left body length untouched. The worms still turned sterile and died sooner than kin. Timed melting can now map which life stages need the switch. Tissue by tissue tests are open with the same strain.
