Abstract excerpt
The clk-1 mutants of Caenorhabditis elegans display an average slowing down of physiological rates, including those of development, various behaviors, and aging. clk-1 encodes a hydroxylase involved in the biosynthesis of the redox-active lipid ubiquinone (co-enzyme Q), and in clk-1 mutants, ubiq...
