mir-277 | — | Constitutive miR-277 expression shortens lifespan and synthetically lethal with reduced insulin signaling, indicating that metabolic control underlies this phenotype. Transgenic inhibition with a miRNA sponge construct also shortens lifespan [23669073].
miR-277 is downregulated during adult life [23669073].
mir-277 controls branched-chain amino acid catabolism and as a result it can modulate the activity of TOR kinase [23669073]. | Fruit fly |
snz | snazarus | Mutation in snz increases maximum lifespan of both sexes by up to 66%, while the median female lifespan is approximately 85% higher and that of males around 72% [18478054]. | Fruit fly |
Loco | locomotion defects | Reduced expression of Loco due to hetero-deficient results in a 17-20% longer mean lifespan for both male and females, besides the fact that the homozygous deficiency of loco is lethal. Several of these long-lived mutants are more resistant to stresses such as starvation, oxidation and heat. Additionally, mutants have higher Manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity, increased fat content an diminished cAMP levels. Loco's RGS domain is required for the regulation of longevity as deletion analysis suggest [21776417]. | Fruit fly |
Lnk | — | Loss of Lnk function results in increased median (14% in females and 17.5 in males) and maximum lifespan, reduced female fecundity and improves survival under conditions of oxidative stress and starvation. Heterozygousity does not result in any significant differences in lifespan in either males or females. Moreover, lifespan extension in one of the female homozygous mutant is fully rescued by the introduction of a Lnk genomic rescue construct [20333234]. | Fruit fly |
LBR | Lamin B receptor | Overexpression of Lamin B receptor in the adult muscle and in the abdominal fat body results in a 54% and 46% reduction of mean lifespan, respectively [18494863]. | Fruit fly |
kuk | kugelkern | Overexpression of kugelkern in the adult muscle results in a 60% reduction of mean lifespan [18494863]. | Fruit fly |
CG3776 | — | Both overexpression and underexpression of CG3776 (alias Jhebp29) reduces the mean lifespan, where the reduction in males is slightly higher.
The lifespan of male flies with under- and overexpressed CG3776 is reduced by 38.8 and 42.6%, respectively when compared with Oregon R flies.The lifespan of female flies with under- and overexpressed CG3776 is reduced by 31.6 and 35%, respectively when compared to Oregon R flies.
Among the males and females, relatively to Oregon R and EP835/CyO, the age-specific survival of EP835/EP835 and EP835/Gal4 is reduced in both log-rank and Wilcoxon tests (P < 0.001); survival of EP835/EP835 and EP835/Gal4 differed using the log-rank-test (male: P<0.001; female: P=0.027) [18275960].

Gr63a | Gustatory receptor 63a | Gr63a loss-of-function in female flies leads to 30% extended mean lifespan, increased fat deposition, and enhanced resistance to some (but not all) environmental stresses. Lifespan of males is not extended [20422037].
Overexpression of Gr63a has modest negative effect on lifespan [20422037]. | Fruit fly |
esc | extra sexcombs | Males heterozygous for the null esc4 or the dominant negative esc9 mutation that are progeny of an out-cross to a O-R wild-type strain have median lifespan that is, respectively, 47% and 60% longer than the O-R control. When derived from an out-cross to a longer-lived C-S wild-type strain, heterozygous esc9 flies have a median lifespan that is 43% longer than the C-S control [20018689]. | Fruit fly |

When derived from an out-cross to a longer-lived Canton-S (C-S) wild-type strain, the median lifespan of E(z)63 heterozygous is 33% longer than the C-S control [20018689]. | Fruit fly |
DNApol-gamma35 | DNA polymerase gamma 35kD | Overexpression of DNApol-gamma35 (DNA polymerase gamma) in the nervous system results in a decrease in the median lifespan ranging from 39% to 52% [17999718].
| Fruit fly |
CG9172 | — | RNAi against CG9172 increases mean lifespan in females by up to 4-12% when applied in both development and adulthood, and up to 46% when applied in adult neurons only. For males the effect is variable [19747824]. | Fruit fly |
CG18809 | — | RNAi of CG18809 results in a 7-19% increase in mean lifespan of females, while neural RNAi results in an increased mean lifespan of up to 12% in females. For males the results are variable [19747824]. | Fruit fly |

After outcrossing, the mutant exhibit, under normal conditions, an increase in mean lifespan of 22% for females and 38% for males. Maximum lifespan is increased by 15%. alpha-Man-I RNAi knockdown results in a 39% increase in mean lifespan [19302370]. | Fruit fly |
14-3-3epsilon | CG31196 gene product from transcript CG31196-RA | Loss of 14-3-3ε results in increased stress-induced apoptosis, growth repression and extended lifespan of flies, in a foxo-dependent manner. Mean lifespan of males and females is increased by 25% and 49%, respectively. Increased 14-3-3ε expression also reverts foxo-induced growth defects. No effect of lifespan is observed when overexpressing 14-3-3ε in adipose tissue, indicating that endogenous foxo activity in this tissue is low under normal conditions [18665908]. | Fruit fly |
l(3)DTS3 | lethal (3) DTS3 | Female, but not male, heterozygous mutants exhibit a 42% increase in mean lifespan and resistance to various stresses, with no apparent deficit in fertility or activity [12610309]. | Fruit fly |
insc | inscuteable | insc disruption through an insertion of the P{EPgy2} vector in ts structural part prolongs female lifespan. Heterozygous esg and insc double mutants interact in the course of lifespan determination. The decrease of esg transcription is associated with lifespan increase in mutant esg and insc flies [22661237]. | Fruit fly |
esg | Escargot | Disruption of esg by insertion of the P{GT1} vector 300 bp downstream of its structural part increases male and female lifespan. Heterozygous esg and insc double mutants interact in the course of lifespan determination. The decrease of esg transcription is associated with lifespan increase in mutant esg and insc flies [22661237]. | Fruit fly |
aPKC | atypical protein kinase C | Insertion of a P-based vectors in the structural part of aPKC increase male and female lifespan [22661237]. | Fruit fly |
CG5389 | — | RNAi of complex V subunit CG5389 results in increased mean longevity under standard laboratory food conditions (3% yeast) in males. RNAi started from the development results in a mild lifespan increase in both sexes (3-11% in females and 3-8% in males). Post-developmental RNAi and silencing limited to neurons has variable effects with reduction in lifespan of up to 9% [19747824]. Under rich media conditions CG5389 knockdown throughout development and adulthood increases mean lifespan by 26% and abolished the lifespan extension by DR (started in the adulthood) in males. Suppression of CG5389 only during the adulthood either via RNAi by tub-GS or via oligomycin (a specific inhibitor of complex V) feeding prevents an increase in longevity under DR (started in the adulthood) in males [19968629]. | Fruit fly |
pex13 | peroxin 13 | Mutation of pex13(KG04339), located in its promoter region, results in lower gene expression and increased lifespan by around 16% and 13% in males and females. pex13 mutation increases mean and maximum lifespan by 23-27/14-19% and 11%, respectively [22509016]. | Fruit fly |
pex1 | peroxin 1 | Mutation of the promoter region of pex1(S4868), results in lower expression levels and increases lifespan in males and females by 16% and 13%, respectively. pex1 mutation increases mean and maximum lifespan and males/females by 27-23/14-19% and 0-15%, respectively [22509016]. | Fruit fly |
Ilp2 | Insulin-like peptide 2 | Flies with an ablation of median neurosecretary cells (which eliminates Ilp2 expression) exhibit a significant increase in mean and maximum lifespan over that of control flies and an increase to oxidative stress and starvation. The mutants also exhibit increased storage of lipid and carbohydrate, reduced fecundity, and reduced tolerance of heat and cold [15708981]. The median and maximum lifespan of females is increased by 33.5% and 40%, respectively. In males the median and maximum lifespan is increased by 10.5% and 27%, respectively [15708981].
Ilp2 RNA interference results in a 24% to 47% increase in median lifespan [19005568].
Ilp2 is transcriptional down-regulated in long-lived mutants. Ilp2 null mutants are significant longer-lived with a 8-13% longer median lifespan, but have a normal DR response. Ilp2 Ilp3 Ilp5 triple null mutants fail to have a normal response to DR. Their response is right shifted, with mutants shorter-lived compared to wild-type on low but longer-lived on high yeast concentrations [20195512]. | Fruit fly |
