Symbol: cup-4 Name: Coelomocyte UPtake defective 4 Entrez gene ID: 176104 Ensembl gene ID: C02C2.3 Species: Worm (Taxid: 6239) Functional description: Thought to regulate endocytosis in coelomocytes through modulation of phospholipase C activity. Possible acetylcholine receptor. [UniProt] Observation: cup-4 RNAi or overexpession reduces oxidative stress resistance and shortens lifespan of wild-type under AL. cup-4 RNAi significantly reduces the extended lifespan of eat-2 mutants, but failed to block lifespan extension of age-1 or clk-1 mutants. Lifespan of cup-4 mutants increases only moderately by sDR [19783783].
