1. Worms are raised on NGM agar plates and fed with E.coli for 2 days, until they reach L4 stage.
2. Overnight cultured E.coli is centrifuged at 5000g for 5 min and the supernatant is discarded.
3. E.coli is resuspended by M9 buffer to OD600=1. 0.5mL M9 containing E.coli is added to a 1.5mL Eppendorf tube.
4. MG132 (sc-201270, Santa Cruz) or DMSO is added into the Eppendorf tubes. The final concentration of MG132 is100μM.
5. Worms are transferred into 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tubes and rotated on a vertical tube rotator at 20℃ for 24h.
