Excited to share our work reporting that fly Lsp2 acts as a nutrient-induced physiological factor that amplifies mTORC1 output in TOP mRNA translation and regulates lifespan.

A fruit-fly protein thought only to store amino acids in fact responds to nutritional deficiency in both development and adulthood, resulting in lifespan extension
Very nice News&Views by Linda Partridge for our paper and the back-to-back study by Zhai's group. Thanks everyone involved!

Our new study just out @nature.com Together with Koshi Imami @RIKEN IMS, Hina Kosakamoto found out the key molecule mediating lifespan extension by early life dietary restriction! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
