The olfactory receptor SNIF-1 mediates foraging for leucine-enriched diets in C. elegans

Acquisition of essential nutrients through diet is crucial for the survival of animals. Dietary odors might enable animals to forage for nutrient-rich diets. We asked if Caenorhabditis elegans, a bacterivorous nematode, uses olfactory cues to forage for essential amino acid-rich (EAA) diets. Using t...
