Nucleotides are required in order to replicate DNA in the developing germline. Here, Chi and colleagues (pp. 307-320) have used Caernohabditis elegans to identify a GLP-1-dependent checkpoint that senses food (bacterially)-supplied nucleotide levels, arresting reproductive development in the absence of sufficient nucleotide supplies.
