WRKY6 | WRKY transcription factor 6 | Deletion of the WRKY6 promoter results in defects in root and leaf cell senescence [11722756].
WRKY6 is a transcription factor involved in controlling processes related to senescence and pathogen defence [11722756] and is a positive regulator of PR1 expression [12000796]. WRKY6 is strongly expressed during senescence [11722756]. | — |
wdr-23 | WD Repeat protein 23 | RNA interference of wdr-23 in adulthood extends mean lifespan by 24% [17411345]. | Nematode |
wah-1 | Worm AIF (apoptosis inducing factor) Homolog | wah-1 RNAi in the adulthood extends the lifespan [New longevity regulators]. RNAi against wah-1 started after the animal reaches the late L4 stage extends mean lifespan by 7-8% [22103665]. | Nematode |
W09C5.8 | — | RNAi against W09C5.8 increases mean and maximum lifespan by 62% and 50%, respectively [12447374]. Lifespan extension by RNAi of W09C5.8 is not suppressed by daf-16. Loss of W09C5.8 activity via RNAi can also result in a shortened lifespan, reduced fertility and defects in mitochondrial respiratory chain function [19074434].
W09C5.8 RNAi animals have lower ATP content and oxygen consumption [12447374]. | Nematode |
vps-37 | related to yeast Vacuolar Protein Sorting factor | RNA interference of vps-37 decreases median lifespan by 44% in wild-type animals, 47% in a daf-2 background and 33% in daf-2/daf-16 double mutants [18006689]. | Nematode |
vit-5 | VITellogenin structural genes (yolk protein genes) 5 | RNA interference against vit-5 extends mean lifespan by 10-22%. vit-5 is differentially transcribed in daf-16 and daf-2 RNAi animals [12845331]. RNAi knockdown of vit-5 starting at hatching or only during the adulthood significantly extends lifespan of wild-type, but does not alter, or even shortens the lifespan of eat-2 mutants [22810224]. | Nematode |
vit-2 | VITellogenin structural genes (yolk protein genes) | vit-2 RNA interference extends mean lifespan by 21-24%. vit-2 is differentially transcribed in daf-16 and daf-2 RNAi animals [12845331].
vit-2 functions in germ-line development by regulating the abundance of native versus oxidized LDL-like lipoproteins [11408580]. | Nematode |
VHS1 | Viable in a Hal3 Sit4 background 1 | Deletion of VHS1 increases replicative lifespan [16293764]. VHS1 deletion increases replicative lifespan by 60% in the alpha strain [19030232]. | Budding yeast |
