C. elegans FOG-3/Tob can either promote or inhibit germline proliferation, depending on gene dosage and genetic context

Vertebrate Tob/BTG proteins inhibit cell proliferation when overexpressed in tissue culture cells, and they can function as tumor suppressors in mice. The single Caenorhabditis elegans Tob/BTG ortholog, FOG-3, by contrast, was identified from its loss-of-function phenotype as a regulator of sperm fa...
