Eukaryotic Elongation Factor 2 Kinase EFK-1/eEF2K promotes starvation resistance by preventing oxidative damage in C. elegans

Junran Yan, Forum Bhanshali, Chiaki Shuzenji, Tsultrim T. Mendenhall, Shane K. B. Taylor, Glafira Ermakova, Xuanjin Cheng, Pamela Bai, Gahan Diwan, Donna Seraj, Joel N. Meyer, Poul H. B. Sorensen, Jessica H. Hartman, Stefan Taubert

This study identifies efk-1/eEF2K as a key factor in C. elegans starvation survival by enhancing DNA repair and reducing oxidative stress through a translation-independent mechanism.
