Abstract
Weaver et al. describe a non-apoptotic role for CED-3 caspase during development in C. elegans. They show that a p38 MAPK pathway primes animals for stressful encounters by upregulating stress-responsive genes and slowing development. CED-3 antagonizes this stress response via proteolytic inactivation of p38, thus promoting development.
