  1. A Conserved Endocrine Mechanism Controls the Formation of Dauer and Infective Larvae in Nematodes
    Akira Ogawa, Adrian Streit, ... Ralf J Sommer

    Curr Biol 19(1):5 (2009) PMID 19110431 PMCID PMC2712670

    We used an evolutionary approach involving Pristionchus pacificus as an intermediate. We show by mutational and pharmacological analysis that Pristionchus and Caenorhabditis share the dafachronic acid-DAF-12 system as the core endocrine module for dauer formation. One dafachronic acid, Delta7-DA, ha...

  2. Proteogenomics of Pristionchus pacificus reveals distinct proteome structure of nematode models
    N Borchert, C Dieterich, ... B Macek

    Genes Dev 20(6):837-846 (2010) PMID 20237107

    We performed transcriptome and proteome analysis and gathered comprehensive experimental information on gene expression. Transcriptome analysis on a 454 Life Sciences (Roche) FLX platform generated >700,000 expressed sequence tags from two normalized EST libraries, whereas proteome analysis on an LT...
  3. Co-option of the hormone-signalling module dafachronic acid-DAF-12 in nematode evolution.
    Gilberto G Bento, Akira A Ogawa, and Ralf J RJ Sommer

    Nature 466(7305):494-7 (2010) PMID 20592728

    We study two alternative morphologies in the mouth of the nematode Pristionchus pacificus and the formation of teeth-like structures that are associated with bacteriovorous feeding and predatory behaviour on fungi and other worms. These teeth-like denticles represent an evolutionary novelty, which i...
