The overall goal of the following experiment in genetically trackable design Caenorhabditis elegans is to identify tissue-specific chaperone interactions. The main advantage of this technique is that it combines easy to use assays such as fitting

To study chaperone-chaperone and chaperone-substrate interactions, we perform synthetic interaction screens in Caenorhabditis elegans using RNA interference in combination with mild mutations or over-expression of chaperones and monitor tissue-specific protein dysfunction at the organismal level.
