The JNK-Like MAPK KGB-1 of Caenorhabditis Elegans Promotes Reproduction, Lifespan, and Gene Expressions for Protein Biosynthesis and Germline Homeostasis but Interferes with Hyperosmotic Stress Tolerance

Aims: This study focused on the role of the JNK-like MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) KGB-1 (kinase, GLH-binding 1) for osmoprotection and other vital functions. Methods: We mapped KGB-1 expression patterns and determined lifespan, reproduction and survival rates as well as changes in body vo...
