Remark"To assess the involvement of the Raf pathway in temperature memory variability in AFD, we analyzed temperature-evoked calcium dynamics of AFD in the Raf pathway mutants: lin-45, mek-2, mpk-1, and sur-2. Surprisingly, mutations in Raf pathway genes reduced the variability of response temperatures of AFD. The wild-type response temperatures distributed within a temperature range of about 19.0 degrees Celsius to 22.0 degrees Celsius. By contrast, the response temperatures of the Raf pathway mutants were within a temperature range of about 20.5 degrees Celsius to 21.5 degrees Celsius (Figures 3B and 3C)."Paper_evidenceWBPaper00049050

Remark"In the suppressor screen, we utilized pleiotropic defects of cmk-1 mutants: cmk-1 mutants showed abnormally low expression of nhr-38 promoter-fused GFP, an AFD neuron-specific GFP marker (Satterlee et al., 2004). Therefore, we mutagenized cmk-1 mutants carrying nhr-38 promoter-fused GFP and found that a mutation in sur-2 gene that encodes the ortholog of human MED23, a subunit of transcription mediator complex (Singh and Han, 1995), restored the expression of the GFP marker in a cmk-1 mutant background (Figures S3A and S3B)."Paper_evidenceWBPaper00049050
