| Abstract |
While the nervous system of bilaterian animals is mainly left-right (L-R) symmetric at the anatomical level, some molecular and functional L-R asymmetries exist. However, the extent of these molecular asymmetries and their functional consequences remain poorly characterized. C. elegans allows to study L-R asymmetries in the nervous system with single-neuron resolution. We have previously shown that a neural bHLH transcription factor, HLH-16/Olig, is L-R asymmetrically expressed in the AIY neuron lineage and regulates AIY axon projections in a L-R asymmetric manner. Here, by combining a candidate approach and single-cell RNA sequencing data analysis, we identify the ephrin protein EFN-2 and the Flamingo protein FMI-1 as downstream targets of HLH-16 that are L-R asymmetrically expressed in the AIY lineage. We show that EFN-2 and FMI-1 collaborate in the L-R asymmetric regulation of axonal growth. EFN-2 may act via a non-canonical receptor of the L1CAM family, SAX-7. Our study reveals novel molecular L-R asymmetries in the C. elegans nervous system and their functional consequences. |
