Molecular genetics of sex determination in C. elegans.

Abstract

Sexual fate in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is controlled by a group of genetically well-characterized genes. Several of these sex-determining genes have now been analysed at the molecular level. Transcriptional regulation is likely to control both commitment to a single sexual fate and maintenance of that decision; in addition, intercellular signalling appears to coordinate the sexual fates of cells throughout the animal to adopt a single sexual fate.
