Loss of hlh-17 activity results in L1 animals with abnormal chemotactic responses. Animals were assayed for their response to sodium, potassium, and isoamyl alcohol. hlh-17 mutant heterozygotes and homozygotes were significantly less attracted to potassium and sodium than wild-type animals. All animals displayed the same response to isoamyl alcohol. Homozygous mutants were unresponsive to all three chemicals.
