Research Abstract |
Temperature is an unavoidable environmental cue that affects metabolism and behavior of any creature on earth. While light and smell are received by G protein-coupled receptors, temperature is received by TRP channel. Here we found G protein-coupled temperature sensing in nematode C.elegans.
