Figure 5. Defective cilia function extends L1 starvation survival.
(A–B) Effects of ciliary defects on starvation survival. Only mutations that cause severe defects in cilia function enhance starvation survival. (C) Extended L1 starvation survival of cilia defective osm-6 mutants requires daf-16. (D) Effects of mutations in TRPV family members on starvation survival. ocr-2 mutants extend starvation survival while other TRPV members do not alter survival. (E) Extended survival of ocr-2 mutant is dependent on daf-16. (F) Loss-of-function mutation in Gα odr-3 reduces starvation survival. Statistical analyses of data shown in (A–F) are reported in Table S1.
