High-fidelity encoding of mechanostimuli by tactile food-sensing neurons requires an ensemble of ion channels

The nematode C. elegans uses mechanosensitive neurons to detect bacteria, which are food for worms. These neurons release dopamine to suppress foraging and promote dwelling. Through a screen of genes highly expressed in dopaminergic food-sensing neurons, we identify a K2P-family potassium channel—TW...
