Symbol: nhr-62 Name: Nuclear Hormone Receptor family Entrez gene ID: 172836 Species: Worm (Taxid: 6239) Observation: NHR-62 is required for metabolic and physiologic responses associated with DR-induced longevity. nhr-62 mediates the longevity response of eat-2 mutants and blunts the longevity by bacterial food dilution [Heestand, et al. 2012]. Mutation in nhr-62 suppresses the lifespan extension of eat-2(ad465) animals (p<0.001) [Heestand et al. 2013]. Wild-type (N2) worms with extrachromosomal array dhEx627 (carrying a wild-type nhr-62) exhibit a significant increase in lifespan compared to wild-type (p<0.001) [Heestand et al. 2013].
