Dicarbonyl/L-xylulose reductase (DCXR) producing xylitol regulates egg retention through osmolality control in Caenorhabditis elegans
To support life, the osmolality of the cellular fluid is tightly regulated by various means, including osmolyte control. Dicarbonyl/L-xylulose reductase (DCXR) is a highly conserved enzyme reducing L-xylulose to xylitol, which serves as an effective osmolyte in various mammalian and human tissues su...
