A Hypoxia Sensitive to Hypoxia Resistant Transformation in Long-Lived Germline Mutants

Christopher Hemphill, Evye Pylarinou-Sinclair, Omar A. Itani…·Marc Ryan Van Gilst

This paper shows that germline-deficient C. elegans larvae become hypoxia resistant adults through developmental stage-dependent mechanisms involving reduced protein translation.

Requirement for TRanslocon-Associated Protein (TRAP) α in insulin biogenesis

Xin Li, Omar A. Itani, Leena Haataja…·Patrick J Hu

This study identifies TRAP as essential for insulin biogenesis, showing it facilitates preproinsulin translocation and affects downstream processing and secretion.
