Abstract
Several studies indicate that reduced TOR signaling underlies life span extension by dietary restriction. Recently, Zid et al. (Zid et al., 2009) linked the benefits of dietary restriction in flies to increased levels of the downstream TOR target 4E-BP1 and corresponding changes in the relative translation rates of classes of mRNAs.
