Mortality rates of different C. elegans strains after treatment with CM for 48 h at different concentrations compared to the wild-type N2 Bristol strain. No differences were observed for (a) worms overexpressing clx-1 or (b) worms overexpressing T22D1.2 as GFP fusion proteins, respectively. (c) Knockout of both genes, clx-1 as well as T22D1.2 did not lead to an increase in mortality. (d) Expression of T22D1.2 under a stronger promoter (pvit-5) significantly enhanced resistance towards treatment with CM at lower concentrations. Bars represent means ± SEM. *: p < 0.05, determined by two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s test for multiple comparisons.
