Starvation-induced attenuation of osmotic avoidance behaviour is dependent on tubulin glutamylation. (a) Schematic diagram of the sensitised osmotic avoidance assay. (b) TTLL-4-dependent suppression of avoidance behaviour is induced by starvation. Numbers of assay plates measured are indicated. Numbers in brackets represent the number of independent experiments. Double asterisk (**p < 0.01, Student’s t test) indicates significant difference as compared with the avoidance index after starvation in wild-type. Bars indicate mean ± S.E.
