Abstract excerpt
The purine metabolism is crucial for cellular function and is a conserved metabolic network from prokaryotes to humans. While extensively studied in microorganisms like yeast and bacteria, the impact of perturbing dietary intermediates from the purine biosynthesis on animal development and growth remains poorly understood. We utilized Caenorhabditis elegans as the metazoan model to investigate the mechanisms...
