AGMO and bacterial infectious disease: agmo-1 encodes alkylglycerol monooxygenase for ether-linked lipids degradation, and agmo-1 mutants exhibit bacterial infection resistance and contain ether-linked (O-alkyl chain) lipids in comparison to exclusively ester-linked (O-acyl) lipids in wild-type animals, which might provide a more resilient cuticle for agmo-1 mutants [40].
