1 study
  1. mxl-2 has no effect on oxygen consumption rate in worms.

    “loss of mxl-2 in DR does not affect the rate of oxygen consumption in young animals.”

  1. mxl-2 increases brood size in worms.

    “eat-2;mxl-2 animals exhibit substantially smaller brood sizes and lay a proportion of dead eggs”

1 study
  1. mxl-2 is required for dietary restriction-induced metabolic gene expression changes in worms.

    “demonstrate broad changes in metabolic gene expression in eat-2 DR animals, which requires both mxl-2 and pha-4.”
