Mitochondrial genome recovery by ATFS-1 is essential for development following starvation

Nutrient availability regulates the C. elegans life cycle as well as mitochondrial physiology. Food deprivation significantly reduces mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) number and leads to aging-related phenotypes. Here, we demonstrate that the bZIP protein ATFS-1, a mediator of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt), is required to promote growth and establish a functional germline following prolonged starvation. Surprisingly, we found that the recovery of mtDNA copy number and
