Finally, we assayed glp-4(bn2), glp-4(bn2); zip-2(tm4248), zip-4(tm1359) glp-4(bn2), and glp-4(bn2); cebp-1(tm2807) mutants for the expression of a panel of genes that were upregulated under Slow Killing conditions (i.e., infections with P. aeruginosa on agar). The gene discussed is HERC5; the disease is infection.
