additional information animals lacking CGT do not synthesize glycosphingolipids, arrest growth at the first larval stage, and display defects in a subset of cells in their digestive tract, restoring CGT function in these digestive tract cells but not in a variety of other tissues is sufficient to rescue the phenotypes associated with loss of CGT function Caenorhabditis elegans
