Factors

We need to know every factor which determines lifespan.

Lifespan factors often but not always originate from defined genetic elements. They are not just genes, by definition they can be anything for which a Classifications schema can be build for that is related to the regulation of lifespan, such entities may include Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism, transcript variants, proteins and their complexes, compounds (i.e. small molecules like metabolites and drugs), etc. A factor should be based on a defined molecular entity or genomic position and been classified. It shall be highly flexible and scalable Concept.

While individual lifespan factors within each species or precise defined molecular entities will be captured within the Lifespan App, Data Entries of the Data App may summarize for instance the relevance of each factor class (e.g. homologous group; chemical derivate of related structure and properties, etc.) as well as draw overall conclusions. o

    bar-1 beta-catenin BAR-1 may play a role in regulating daf-16 during dauer formation, particularly in conditions of oxidative stress as it directly interaction with DAF-16 and loss of bar-1 reduces activity of DAF-16 in dauer formation and lifespan. Deletion of bar-1 reduces mean (44%) and maximal (18%) lifespan, which is to a similar degree as seen to daf-16 mutants [15905404]. SMK-1 is important DAF-16 modulation of lifespan and specific stress response [5]. Nematode
    bec-1 BEClin (human autophagy) homolog 1 bec-1 is required for normal dauer morphogenesis and lifespan extension. Knockdown of bec-1 via RNA interference results in a shortened mean and maximum lifespan by 14 and 5% [12958363]. bec-1 RNAi does not significantly change the lifespan of wild-type, but completely suppresses the longevity phenotype of eat-2 mutation [17912023; 18282106] and prevents lifespan extension by daf-2(e1370) mutation [12958363]. bec-1 RNAi causes the formation of abnormal dauers in a daf-2(e1379) background [12958363]. Nematode
    blmp-1 Blimp1 (B Lymphocyte-induced Maturation Protein-1) homolog 1 RNA interference of blmp-1 decreases median lifespan by 17% in a daf-2 background and 20% in daf-2/daf-16 double mutants [18006689]. Nematode
    BNA6 Biosynthesis of Nicotinic Acid 6 Deletion of BNA6 (alias QPT1) has no effect on replicative lifespan and is not required for lifespan extension by DR, but is lethal with mutation of NPT1 [11000115]. Deletion of BNA6 decreases chronological lifespan [17110466]. Nematode
    bra-1 BMP receptor Associated protein family bra-1(nk1) mutation reduces mean lifespan by 6-25% [17900898]. Nematode
    bub-3 yeast BUB homolog RNAi against bub-3 increases mean and maximum lifespan by 6-7% and 7%, respectively [18059442]. Nematode
