Symbol: pyk-1 Name: PYruvate Kinase 1 Entrez gene ID: 172744 Ensembl gene ID: F25H5.3 Species: Worm (Taxid: 6239) Function: pyurvat kinase Observation: RNA interference of pyk-1 during adulthood significantly shortens the lifespan of both wild-type and eat-2 mutants. RNAi knockdown of pyk-1 from hatching causes larval lethality. PYK-1 is downregulated in eat-2 mutants [22810224]. pyk-1(ok1754) mutation extends the lifespan and this effect is non-additive with the lifespan extension mediated by DDS treatment [20974969].
