Abstract
We developed an efficient screening platform to evaluate chemotactic behavioral responses (attraction/repulsion) in C. elegans when exposed to plant derived small molecules. This platform uses multiwell plates, standard liquid handling equipment, flatbed scanners, a custom data management workflow, and computer-vision based software for data analysis. With this system, we screened 96 conditions (90 test and 6 reference compounds) in triplicate against the N2 wild-type C. elegans strain in 3 experimental days. We identified 37 SMs that evoke detectable responses in chemotaxis assays and advanced these 37 compounds into screens using tax-4, osm-9, and tax-4;osm-9 mutants. Taken together these initial results move us closer to our goal of better understanding the molecular mechanisms of chemosensory signal transduction and the identification of SM/receptor pairs. Overall, this repository contains the raw image files (.tiff), metadata and worm location files (.csv) for all analyzed images associated with the screen described above.
