Analysis of maternal effect lethal mutations on chromosome v of caenorhabditis elegans

Objective

Research objectives and content
The proposal envisages the analysis of mutants on chromosome V The approach holds the promise of new insights in early deter-minative events and this links a functional analysis to the molecular analysis pursued by the C. elegans genome project.
Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact)
Candidate will receive training in an for him entirely new field. Techniques employed, like the 4D microscopy, can currently not be executed anywhere else in the EU for de velopmental purposes.
Links with industry / industrial relevance (22)
Software used holds the promise of being commercialised by a Munich based company SIMI BIOCELL
