Bacterial-derived cyclic lipopeptides suppress dauer arrest in C. elegans

Secondary bacterial metabolites can regulate animal physiology, but the specific bacterial genes and molecules responsible for regulating, synthesizing, and transporting these molecules and the mechanisms by which they impact animal physiology often remain unclear. Here, we used Caenorhabditis elegans dauer formation as a gross morphological readout to identify bacterial mechanisms that promote…
