Figure 3. Body muscle responses to ACh and GABA are unaltered in ric-7 mutants.

Figure 3

(A) Time course of levamisole (200 µM) induced paralysis is shown for wild type and ric-7(nu447) adults. Three trials (∼20 animals/trial) were performed for each genotype. (B) ACh (top) and Muscimol (bottom)-activated currents were recorded from body wall muscles of ric-7 and wild type adults. Representative responses (left) and summary data (right) are shown. Wild type and ric-7 mutant responses were not significantly different. (C–D) Representative images (above) and summary data (below) are shown for ACR-16::GFP (C) and UNC-49::GFP (D) expressed in body muscles of wild type and ric-7 adults (using the myo-3 promoter). No significant differences were observed. The number of animals analyzed is indicated for each genotype (panels B–D). Error bars indicate SEM.
