Abstract

The transcription factor DAF-16/FOXO mediates a wide variety of aging-preventive responses by driving the expression of stress resistance and longevity promoting genes. Here the authors show that transcriptional initiation at many DAF-16/FOXO target genes requires the dephosphorylation of SPT-5 by Protein Phosphatase 4.
