UPRmt scales mitochondrial network expansion with protein synthesis via mitochondrial import in Caenorhabditis elegans

The mitochondrial network expands to accommodate cell growth, but how scaling occurs is unclear. Here, the authors show in C. elegans that ATFS-1 mitochondrial import is reduced when mitochondrial proteins are highly expressed, activating the unfolded protein response and causing expansion.
