    Description

    Spermatogenesis prompts a series of striking changes in the intracellular composition and the spatial arrangement of organelles. Among those changes include alterations in the morphology of mitochondria. This study showed that condensed mitochondria are distinct organelles with a stable ultrastructure and a distinguishable proteome. To investigate the development of condensed mitochondria, they used...

    Description

    PTEN is one of the most frequently lost tumor suppressors in human cancers and regulates quiescence of stem cells and cancer cells. The Caenorhabditis elegans daf-18 gene encodes the worm version of PTEN. Previous studies showed that in worms that have lost daf-18 function, primordial germ cells (PGCs) inappropriately begin dividing in the L1 larvae hatched into starvation conditions. This study examined...
