Identification of slcr-46.1-related genes for cold tolerance.
Nematode C. elegans slcr-46.1 mutant strains show abnormally decreased-cold tolerance. slcr-46.1 mutant strains with fdx-2 knock-down showed almost normal cold tolerance. To investigate the impact of FDX-2 knockdown on cold tolerance, we performed transcriptome analysis using wild-type and slcr-46.1 mutant strains with fdx-2 knock-down.
