Two major problems prohibiting Pasteuria penetrans from being developed into a
commercial product related to endospore production
1) In vitro mass production
2) Spore ‘type’ and attachment specificity
“Forget about the genome. And let’s say, ‘It’s great. We’ve got
all these sequences. Thank you very much for all the people
that helped to get them - please get us some more.’ And let’s
get on with the biology.”

An evolutionary conserved phosphorylation cascade involving the insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor is well characterised in C. elegans
Activation of phosphorylation pathway begins with binding of insulin-like ligand to DAF-2 receptor (38 present in Ce only a few characterised) DAF-2 activates AGE-1 which converts phosphatidylinositol biphosphate to a triphosphate PiP3 binds to the AKT-1/AKT2 complex that phosphorylates the Forkhead transcription factor DAF-16 DAF-16+P cannot be translocated to nucleus to activate DAF-2 pathways DAF-16 can enter nucleus L1 and L2 activates dauer formation L3 – adults activates stress response and anti-microbial genes (Millet & Ewbank, 2004)

Three types of cuticle variation
• Constituative variation: under genetic control and can segregate • Clonal vartiation: probable under epigenetic control • Induced variation: modulated by environmental parameters
