Muscles expressing the DOP-3::RFP and exposed to Se(IV), showed increased expression levels of DOP-3::RFP not observed in the muscles of water exposed animals.
The dop-3(vs106) mutation suppressed the SWIP phenotype of dat-1(ok157) mutants as dat-1(ok157); dop-3(vs106) double mutants swam freely like wild-type animals.
