Fatty Acids Regulate Germline Sex Determination through ACS-4-Dependent Myristoylation.

Cell - 20 Apr 2017

Tang Hongyun, Han Min

Abstract excerpt

Fat metabolism has been linked to fertility and reproductive adaptation in animals and humans, and environmental sex determination potentially plays a role in the process. To investigate the impact of fatty acids (FA) on sex determination and reproductive development, we examined and observed an impact of FA synthesis and mobilization by lipolysis in somatic tissues on oocyte fate in Caenorhabditis elegans. The...
