Factors that influence E. coli folate synthesis and their impact on C. elegans ageing
Microbes can exert both positive and negative effects on animal health and longevity. The nematode worm, Caenorhabditis elegans, and its bacterial diet, Escherichia. coli, provide a simplified model to study animal-microbe interactions. Inhibiting E. coli folate synthesis has been found to increase...
