A genetic screen identifies new steps in oocyte maturation that enhance proteostasis in the immortal germ lineage
2020-08-31
Abstract excerpt
Somatic cells age and die, but the germ-cell lineage is immortal. In C. elegans , germline immortality involves proteostasis renewal at the beginning of each new generation, when oocyte-maturation signals from sperm trigger the clearance of carbonylated proteins and protein aggregates. Here, we explore the cell biology of this proteostasis renewal in the context of a whole-genome RNAi screen. Oocyte maturation si...
