| 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 |
| 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 |
| unc-76 | UNCoordinated | unc-76(e911) allele extends male lifespan by about 50%, but has no effect on hermaphrodite lifespan [10747056].
unc-76 mutants are uncoordinated [4366476]. | Nematode |
| unc-32 | UNCoordinated | unc-32 mutation extends male lifespan by about 170%, but has no effect on hermaphrodite lifespan [10747056].
unc-31 mutants are uncoordinated [4366476]. | Nematode |
| unc-17 | UNCoordinated 17 | unc-17 encodes acteylcholine transporter which is expressed in motor [18041778] and inter-neurons and is downregulated in space. Mutation of unc-17 extends lifespan on NGM agar covered with killed or live bacteria. nc-17(CB933) extends mean, 75%ile, and maximum lifespan by 31-79%, 68-89%, and 68-79%. Lifespan extension by unc-17 mutation is totally abolished by RNAi inactivation of daf-16, but not skn-1. eat-2 RNAi further enhances the extension of lifespan by mutations of unc-17 [22768380].
Mutation and RNAi of unc-17 suppresses pheromone-induced dauer formation [22768380].

| S6k | RPS6-p70-protein kinase | Ubiquitous overexpression of a dominant-negative form of S6k (alias dS6K) increases mean lifespan by 22% and overexpression of a constitutively active form of S6k decreases mean lifespan by 34% at 29°C. Overexpression of a dominant-negative form of S6k protects mutants from deleterious effects of rich food, as if mimicking the effect of DR [15186745]. | Fruit fly |
| TRM9 | TRna Methyltransferase 9 | TRM9 deletion almost triples mean chronological lifespan under starvation/extreme DR, increases heat resistance, but reduces resistance to acetic acid. Similar effect were present in the BY746 background in SDC medium [20657825]. | Budding yeast |
| IPT1 | InositolPhosphoTransferase 1 | Transposon-mediated mutation of IPT1 increases oxidative stress resistance and chronological lifespan by 40% [16527275]. IPT1 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain [19030232]. | Budding yeast |
| SCH9 | — | Transposon-mediated mutagenesis of SCH9, which encodes for a serine threonine kinase homologous to Akt/PKB, increases resistance to oxidants and thermal stress as well as extends chronological lifespan by 30%. SCH9 deletion increases chronological lifespan by up to threefold. Stress-resistance transcription factors Msn2/Msn4 and protein kinase Rim15 are required for this life-extension. Deletion of the mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase gene SOD2 prevents the increased chronological lifespan caused by SCH9 deletion [11292860]. Mutations that decrease the activity of the Ras/Cyr1/PKA pathway also extend longevity and increase stress resistance by activating transcription factors Msn2/Msn4 and Sod2 [12855292]. SCH9 deletion mutants exhibit more than 3-fold extension of chronological lifespan. By day 9 of medium depletion all the wild-type cells were dead while 50% sch9 mutants survived [17710147]. Deletion of SCH9 also increases resistance to heat shock and oxidative stress [11292860], and increases replicative lifespan by 18% (in DBY746) [12586694]. SCH9 deletion increases the replicative lifespan by 40% in the alpha strain [18340043] and increases mean chronological lifespan by 97 - 246% (97, 133, 154, 226, 246) in diploid cells [21447998]. Mutation or deletion of SCH9 increases resistance to oxidants and extends chronological lifespan [11292860; 16286010]. The extended lifespan of SCH9 deletion mutants is not further extended by low glucose DR and is independent of Sir2 [16293764]. Deletion of RIM15 or GIS1 reverses chronological lifespan extension associated with sch9Delta. Water restriction further increases chronological lifespan of sch9Delta [18225956]. Deletion of SCH9 results in a longer chronological lifespan [21076178]. | Budding yeast |
| TOR1 | Target Of Rapamycin 1 | TOR1 deletion extends mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 21 and 25% [16293764] as well as chronological lifespan [21076178]. This lifespan extension is independent of SIR2 and additive with deletion of FOB1 [16293764]. Deletion of TOR1 fails to increase the replicative lifespan of a sir2 mutant [20947565]. Deletion of TOR1 substantially extends chronological lifespan, increasing median survival almost 3-fold (wild-type 4.5 days, tor1 null 12 days), i.e. by 167%. By 21 days in culture, the vast majority of wild-type cells had died (>99.9%), whereas many tor1 null cells remained viable. Deletion of TOR1 also extends the chronological lifespan of the relatively short-lived BY4742 strain, one of the two haploid genetic backgrounds of the widely used Yeast Knockout Collection available from Open Biosystems. Deletion of TOR1 fails to extend chronological lifespan in Petite strains that are unable to respire [17403371]. TOR1 deletion increases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain and 20% in a strain [19030232]. TOR1 deletion mutant have and increased mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 21% and 6%, respectively [21931558]. Deletion of TOR1 extends replicative lifespan as well as chronological lifespan [21076178] and glucose restriction fails to further extend the long replicative lifespan of tor1Delta [16293764; 16418483; 18225956]. Water starvation (extreme DR) further extends chronological lifespan of tor1 mutants [18225956]. | Budding yeast |
| Edem1 | — | The mean lifespan of Edem1 mutants of both male and female is increased by more than 30% [19302370]. | Fruit fly |
| eat-3 | EATing: abnormal pharyngeal pumping | The eat-3(ad426) allele extends lifespan by 10%. Lifespan extension is proposed to be similar to DR [9789046]. eat-1 mutants have defects in haryngeal feeding behavior [8462849]. | Nematode |
| ovo | — | The dominant ovoD1 allele extends female lifespan by approximately 50%. It does not synergize or prevent life-extension caused by chico [10617470; 11292874].
ovoD1 mutants are sterile [Mevel-Ninio et al. 1991]. | Fruit fly |
| CDC6 | Cell Division Cycle | The CDC6-1 conditional allele results in an approximately 20% increase in mean replicative life span. This allele is defective for replicative initiation form the rDNA ARS at 27 degree Celsius, resulting in a reduced rate of extrachromosomal rDNA circle accumulation [9428525]. The cdc6-1 allele results in genomic instability at the permissive temperature [8552037]. | Budding yeast |
| CYR1 | CYclic AMP Requirement 1 | The CDC35-1 allele of the adenylate cyclase CYR1 confers a 75% extension of replicative lifespan at 25 degree Celsius [11000115]. Transposon-mutagenized CYR1 increases resistance to oxidants and extends chronological lifespan by up to 90%. Stress-resistance transcription factors Msn2/Msn4 and protein kinase Rim15 are required for this lifespan extension [11292860]. CYR1 mutation is assumed to act as genetic DR mimetic [11000115]. The CDC35-1 allele of the adenylate cyclase CYR1 confers a 75% extension of replicative lifespan at 25 degree Celsius [11000115]. cyr1-1 mutation extends median chronological lifespan by 28-47% and is non-addative with lifespan extension conferred by overxpression of human MAPK1 [17662940]. | Budding yeast |
| CDC25 | Cell Division Cycle 25 | The CDC25-10 allele extends mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 34% and 18%, respectively, at 30 degree Celsius. cdc25-10 mutants have an extended replicative lifespan under AL. Growth on 0.5% glucose restriction does not further extend replicative lifespan of cdc25-10 mutants. CDC25 null mutant is not viable. CDC25 appears to act in the same genetic pathway as SIR2 and NPT1 and is suggested to be genetic model of DR [11000115]. | Budding yeast |
| tdp-1 | TAR DNA-binding Protein homolog 1 | tdp-1(ok803) mutation increases mean and maximum lifespan at 20 degree Celsius but not at 25 degree Celsius. tdp-1(ok803) reduce the lifespan of daf-2(e1370) mutants, but does not does not reduces the lifespan of daf-16(mu86) mutants. RNAi against tdp-1 reduces lifepsna of daf-2(e1370) mutants. tdp-1 overexpression strains have a reduced lifespan at 20 and 25 degree Celsius [Vaccaro et al. 2012]. | Nematode |
| TCO89 | Tor Complex One | TCO89 deletion increases chronological lifespan, increases mitochondrial oxygen consumption, but decreases mitochondrial and cellular ROS in early stationary phase [21641548]. Deletion of TCO89 cancels out replicative lifespan extension by moderate DR [18690010]. | Budding yeast |
