(b) Transcriptional levels of the autophagy genes lgg-1, lgg-2 and atg-16.2 in fasted wild-type and hlh-30(tm1978) young-adult worms show that transcriptional activation of autophagy following fasting is hlh-30 dependent (mean ddCt+s.e.m. relative to wild-type ad libitum-fed worms). n = 3 independent experiments
