Mondo complexes regulate TFEB via TOR inhibition to promote longevity in response to gonadal signals

Abstract

Removal of the C. elegans germline substantially increases organismal lifespan. Here, Nakamura et al. show that the transcription factors MML-1 and MXL-2 coordinate this process in that they reduce TOR signalling and increase autophagy by regulating activity of HLH-30.
