Figure 4

Size lateralization translates into distinct electrophysiological properties of ASEL versus ASER. Voltage at the proximal and distal ends of the axon (indicated in the schematic on top) is shown in response to a unit depolarization of the distal tip of the dendrite, representing the sensory cilium ('C'). Voltages were computed using standard cable theory. On the y-axis, a value of 1 indicates the voltage that would be expected in an isopotential neuron. Error bars are s.e.m.; **P < 0.01.
