Abstract

SUMMARY SKN-1/Nrf plays multiple essential roles in development and cellular homeostasis. We demonstrate that SKN-1 executes a specific and appropriate transcriptional response to changes in available nutrients, leading to metabolic adaptation. We isolated gain-of-function (gf) alleles of skn-1, affecting a domain of SKN-1 that binds the transcription factor MXL-3 and the mitochondrial outer membrane protein PGAM-5. These skn-1(gf) mutants perceive a state of starvation even in the presence of plentiful food. The aberrant monitoring of cellular nutritional status leads to an altered survival response in which skn-1(gf) mutants transcriptionally activate genes associated with metabolism, adaptation to starvation, aging, and survival. The triggered starvation response is conserved in mice with constitutively activated Nrf and may contribute to the tumorgenicity associated with activating Nrf mutations in mammalian somatic cells. Our findings delineate an evolutionarily conserved metabolic axis of SKN-1/Nrf, further establishing the complexity of this pathway.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
