High impact information on ncs-1

  • Thus, proper calcium signaling via NCS-1 defines a novel pathway essential for associative learning and memory [1].
  • The knockout phenotype can be rescued by reintroducing wild-type NCS-1 into the AIY interneuron, a key component of the thermotaxis network [1].
  • Increased temperature-food association of the daf-2 mutant was dependent on neuronal Ca2+-sensor ncs-1, which modulates isothermal tracking in the AIY interneuron [2].
