| SIR2RP1 | NAD-dependent SIR2 | Overexpression of SIR2RP1 results in a significant increase in survival of the vertebrate stage under normla axenic culture conditions, but has no effect on survival of the insect stage of the parasite. SIR2RP1 is mainly localized within the cytoplasm [12383511]. | — |
| MSRA | methionine sulfoxide reductase A | Animals engineered to overexpress bovine MSRA in the nervous system have an extended median lifespan by up to 70% (relative to parental control), increased resistance to oxidative stress, and delayed the onset of senescence-induced decline in activity levels and reproductive capacity [11867705]. | — |

| sod1 | sod1 superoxide dismutase 1, soluble | Overexpression of sod1 in C. elegans increases mean, median, and maximum lifespan by 21, 25, and 29% [22737090]. | — |
| ucp2 | uncoupling protein 2 | Overexpression of zebrafish's ucp2 in nematode increases mean, median, and maximum lifespan by 42, 40, and 26%, which is non-additive with sDR [22737090]. | — |
| SAG12 | — | Introduction of a SAG12 via bacterial gene transfer (pSAG12:ipt) increases longevity. The gene results in enhanced production of the hormone Cytokinin which affects growth and development as well as stimulates cell division and thereby extends the lifespan. pSAG::ipt transgenic plants exhibit delayed leaf senescence, increased branching and reduced internodal length. The leaves and flowers of the pSAG12:ipt plants are reduced in size and display a more intense coloration [http://www.wissenschaft.de/wissenschaft/news/316062.html; http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2229/12/156/abstract; Garcia-Sogo et al. 2012]. | — |
| wis1 | — | Constitutive active mutation of wis1 extends chronological lifespan and there is no further beneficial effect of DR [20075862]. | Fission yeast |
| PGA3 | Processing of Gas1p and ALP | Low glucose condition induces expression and activity of plasma membrane NADH coenzyme Q reductase (PGA3). Overexpression of PGA3 extends replicative and chronological lifespan by 20-30% [19239415]. | Budding yeast |
| PMR1 | High affinity Ca2+/Mn2+ P-type ATPase required for Ca2+ and Mn2+ transport into Golgi; involved in Ca2+ dependent protein sorting and processing; mutations in human homolog ATP2C1 cause acantholytic skin condition Hailey-Hailey disease | Deletion of PMR1 increses the replicative lifespan by 40% in the alpha strain and by 15% in the a strain. Overexpression of PMR1 extends the lifespan [21918615]. | Budding yeast |
| HPR1 | HyPerRecombination 1 | Deletion of HPR1 decreases replicative lifespan [11756539] | Budding yeast |
| LAG2 | Protein involved in determination of longevity | Deletion of LAG2 in haploid SP1 strain does not affect growth, but results in a 50% decrease in the mean and maximum replicative lifespan. When LAG2 is overexpressed, the mean and maximum replicative lifespan is extended by about 36% and 54%, respectively. Overexpression induced at generation 12 similarly increases replicative lifespan [8760941]. | Budding yeast |
| FIS1 | fission 1 (mitochondrial outer membrane) homolog (S. cerevisiae) | Deletion of FIS1 prolongs significantly mean and maximum lifespan by 13 and 29% as well as improves the fitness of old mother cells (in BY4741) [17173038]. | Budding yeast |
| RPL6A | Ribosomal Protein of the Large subunit 6A | Deletion of RPL6A decrease mean replicative lifespan by 25% in the alpha strain [18340043; 18423200], but increases mean replicative lifespan by 40% in the remade strain. Its deletion non-significantly increases mean replicative lifespan in the ORF collection [22377630]. | Budding yeast |
| SOD1 | SuperOxide Dismutase 1 | The overexpression of Sods, mitochondrial Sod2 and cytosolic CuZnSod (Sod1), in combination delays the age-dependent reversible inactivation of mitochondrial aconitase, a superoxide-sensitive enzyme, and extends chronological lifespan by 30% [12586694]. Deletion of SOD1 decreases replicative lifespan by 40% [17460215]. Overexpression of SOD1 with CCS1 levuates the level of Cn, Zn-Sod activity and increased chronological lifespan. However overexpression of SOD1 without high cooper or simultonous overexpression of CCS1 shortened both chronological and replicative lifespan [15659212]. Overexpression of SOD1 has no effect on replicative lifespan [10224252]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative lifespan by approximately 40%. The magnitude of the decrease in lifespan does not appear to dependent on oxygen concentration in the atmosphere [12020810]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative lifespan [10547026]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative as well as chronological lifespan [10222047].
Cells with a deletion of SOD1 exhibit a profound defect in entry into and survival during stationary phase (i.e. chronological lifespan) in the W303-B strain [8647826; 10222047], which is partially suppressed by expression of human Bcl-2 [9199172].
Hypersensitivity to oxygene and significantly decreased replicative lifespan of SOD1 deletion can be ameliorated by exogenous ascorbate. If acorbate's negative effects of auto-oxidation are prevented by exchange of medium, ascorbate prolongs mean and maximum replicative lifespan in the atmosphere of air and pure oxygene [15621721].
SOD1 deletion causes sensitivity to hyperoxia as well as methionine and lysine auxotrohies [9199172].

| SSD1 | Suppressor of SIT4 Deletion 1 | Overexpression of SSD1 (addition of a SSD1-V allele) increases replicative lifespan by 50%, independently of SIR2 and SIR2 further extends the lifespan, although SIR2 is necessary for SSD1-V cells to attain maximal lifespan [15126388]. SSD1-V also dramatically increases chronological lifespan with lifespan twice as long as ssd1-d cells [19570907]. Deletion of SSD1 increases replicative lifespan by 50% [Li et al., 2009].
Addition of SSD1-V allele to an ssd1-d strain suppresses the short lifespan of an MPT5 deletion mutant [11805047] and extend wild-type lifespan [Kaeberlein and Guarente, unpublished].
SSD1-V slightly extends the lifespan of swi4 and ccr4 mutant strains and suppresses the temperature sensitive growth phenotype of mpt5, ccr3, swi4, and swi6 single mutants [11805047]. SSD1-V also suppresses the synthetic lethality caused by deletion of MPT5 in combination with a mutation in SWI4, SWI6, or CCR4 [11805047]. SSD1-V suppresses mutations that affect cell wall stability [1545797; 8386319], RNA polymerase III activity [8510644], RNA splicing [10446233], and PKA activity [1848673; 8200529]. | Budding yeast |
| TLC1 | — | Overexpression of a truncated allele of TLC1 abrogates telomere silencing [7545955], shortened telomeres and extends replicative lifespan approximately by 20% [9275199]. Deletion of TLC1 might decrease replicative lifespan [Nugent et al., 1996].

| IME1 | Inducer of MEiosis 1 | Transient overexpression of IME1 resets the replicative lifespan of old cells back to that of young cells [21700873]. | Budding yeast |

| YMR018W | — | Deletion of YMR018W increases replicative lifespan by 35% in the alpha strain [18340043]. | Budding yeast |
| NNT1 | Nicotinamide N-methylTransferase 1 | Deletion of NNT1 decreases mean and maximum lifespan by 9 and 19%. 0.5% glucose DR extends the mean and maximum lifespan of NNT1 deletion mutants by 35 and 40%. Overexpression of NNT1 by 5-fold extends mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 18 and 23%, which is approximately of the same magnitude as the lifespan extension obtained from DR. DR in NNT1 overexpression mutant fails to significantly affect the lifespan and only results in extended mean lifespan by 12% and reduced maximum lifespan by 11%. NNT1 overexpression increases rDNA silincing, whereas deletion decreases rDNA silencing. Overexpression of human nicotinamide N-methyltransferase also increases rDNA silencing [12736687]. | Budding yeast |
| SRX1 | SulfiRedoXin 1 | Extra copy of SRX1 counteracts age-related hyperoxidation of Tsa1 and extends replicative lifespan by 15 - 20% in a TSA1-dependent manner. Replicative lifespan extension in sir2;fob1 double mutant by DR is reduced by SRX1 deletion. Wild-type cells require SRX1 to fully extend lifespan. DR fails to further extend replicative lifespan of cells carrying an extra copy of SRX1. Mutation in CDC35 (adenylate cyclase), a genetic mimetic of DR, is dependent on SRX1 to extend replicative lifespan [21884982]. | Budding yeast |
| PNC1 | Pyrazinamidase/NiCotinamidase 1 | Cells with 5 copies of PNC1 have a 70% longer replicative lifespan which is cancelled out by SIR2 deletion. PNC1 is upregulated under glucose DR [12736687]. Pnc1 reduces cellular nicotinamide levels, a product and noncompetitive inhibitor of Sir2 deacetylation reaction. Overexpression of PNC1 suppresses the effect of exogenously added nicotinamide on Sir2-dependent silencing at HM loci, telomeres and rDNA loci [12736687; 14729974]. Pnc1 catalyses the breakdown of nicotinamide to nicotinate and ammonia [12736687]. Deletion of PNC1 shortens replicative lifespan approximately by 10% [12736687] and largely prevents replicative lifespan extension of 0.5% glucose restriction. 0.5% glucose restriction slightly extends median replicative lifespan (by 10 - 15%) but not maximum replicative lifespan in pnc1Delta [14724176]. PNC1 overexpression suppresses the inhibitory effect of exogenously added NAM on silencing, lifespan, and Hst1-mediated transcriptional repression [14729974]. Increased expression of PNC1 is both necessary and sufficient for replicative lifespan extension by DR and low-intensity stress. Under non-stressing conditions (2% glucose, 30 degree Celsius), a strain with additional copies of PNC1 (5XPNC1) has 70% longer replicative lifespan than the wild-type and some cells live for more than 70 divisions. Neither DR nor heat stress further increase the lifespan of the 5XPNC1 strain [12736687]. PNC1 deletion decreases chronological lifespan [17110466]. | Budding yeast |
| NPT1 | Nicotinate PhosphoribosylTransferase 1 | Increased dosage of NPT1 increases SIR2-dependent silencing, stabilizes the rDNA locus and extends replicative lifespan by up to 60%. 0.5% glucose restriction does not significantly further increase replicative lifespan of NPT1 overexpression [11884393]. NPT1 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 50% [17482543] as well as chronological lifespan [17110466]. Deletion of NPT1 shortens the lifespan in W303R. Replicative lifespan extension of cdc25-10 mutation (assumed to act as a genetic DR-mimetic) is cancelled out by NPT1 deletion [11000115].
NPT1 mutation results in loss of telomere and rDNA silencing [10841563], an effect that is likely caused by a loss of SIR2 activty due to decreased NAD levels. Mutation of NPT1 is synthetical lethal with mutation of QPT1 [11000115]. | Budding yeast |
| NDE2 | NADH Dehydrogenase, External 2 | Overexpression of NDE1 and NDE2 increases intracellular NAD/NADH ratio by lowering NADH concentration and increases replicative lifespan by 20-25%. This lifespan extension is non-additive with 0.5% glucose restriction [14724176]. | Budding yeast |
| NDE1 | NADH Dehydrogenase, External 1 | Overexpression of NDE1 and NDE2 increases intracellular NAD/NADH ratio by lowering NADH concentration and increases replicative lifespan by 20-25%. This lifespan extension is non-additive 0.5% glucose restriction [14724176]. Deletion of NDE1 extends chronological lifespan [16436509]. | Budding yeast |
