| lin-14 loss-of-function mutation | A loss-of-function mutation in lin-14 extends lifespan by 31% [16373574]. lin-14(n719) mutation extends mean and maximum lifespan of control animals by 20 and 67%, respectively [23097426].
The life-extending effects is dependent on daf-16 and hsf-1 [16373574]. Inactivation of lin-14 does not increase the lifespan of pash-1 mutants [23097426].
| Worm | +20 to +31 | — | +67 |
| isp-1 mutation | A missense mutation in isp-1 leads to low oxygen consumption, decreased sensitivity to reactive oxygen species, and increased mean (60%) and maximum (100%) lifespan. An isp-1;daf-2 double mutant has a lifespan that is longer than either single mutant, but the lifespan extension of the double mutant is not addative relative to each single mutant [11709184]. | Worm | +60 | — | +100 |
| hsf-1 mutation | A mutant allele of hsf-1 slightly decreases lifespan under AL, but cancels out the lifespan extension effect of bDR. hsf-1 RNAi also prevents lifespan extension by bDR. Glucose or glycerol does not shorten the lifespan of hsf-1 mutants. Glucose treatment completely suppresses the long lifespan caused by hsf-1 overexpression [19883616]. sDR extends the lifespan of hsf-1 mutant with a premature stop codon, that eliminates activation domain, and that of wild-type to a similar extent [19239417]. | Worm | — | — | — |
| nrh-49 mutation | A mutant allele, nhr(nr2041) results in a short lifespan. nhr-49 mutant animals accumulate fat, due to decreased expression of enzymes involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation [15719061]. | Worm | — | — | — |
| lars-2 mutation | A mutation that impairs mitochondrial function was associated with a longer lifespan. Mutation of lrs-2/lars-2(mg312) extends lifespan and is associated with impaired mitochondrial function. The recessive allele mg312 of lars-2 extends lifespan by 200% at 20 degree Celsius and 30% at 25 degree Celsius. Lifespan extension by mg312 was not dependent on daf-16(mgDf47). Homozygous lars-2(mg312) worms had multiple pleotropies like lower rates of growth, pumping and defecation as well as remain the size of early L4 worms and are sterile, with an arrested gonad that exhibited no germ-cell differentiation lars-2 is ubiquitously express, with prominent expression in body-wall muscle and neurons, with a mitochondrial subcellular localisation. Mitochondria of lars-2 are noticeably disorganized, swollen and sometimes fused. lars-2 animals have lower ATP content and oxygen consumption [12447374]. | Worm | +30 to +200 | — | — |
| wrn-1 mutation | A nonfunctional wrn-1 DNA helicase decreases the lifespan [23075628].
The expression of miR-124 in whole wrn-1 mutant worms is significantly reduced [23075628].
Supplementation of vitamin C normalizes the median lifespan of wnr-1 and mir-124 mutants [23075628]. | Worm | — | — | — |

| aak-2 mutation | aak-2(ok524) knockout mutants have a 12% and 18% shorter mean and maximum lifespan, respectively as well as faster age-dependent accumulation of a lipofuscin-like fluorescent pigment in the intestine [15574588]. aak-2 mutation suppresses lifespan extension and delay of the decline in locomotor activity resulting from sDR [17900900]. aak-2 mutation cancels out the lifespan extension effect of sDR and PD, regardless of the concentration of bacteria or peptones. bDR significantly extends lifespan of aak-2 mutants, but to lesser extent than that of wild-type. eat-2 mutation extends the lifespan of aak-2 mutants to the same extent than that of wild-type. Resveratrol does not increase lifespan of aak-2 mutants [19239417]. daf-2(m577);aak-2(ok524) double mutant has a lifespan that is indistinguishable from those of aak-2(ok524) single mutant [15574588]. | Worm | -12 | — | -18 |

| alg-1 RNAi | Adult-specific knockdown of the C. elegans argonaute-like gene 1 *alg-1* results in shortened lifespan with a reduction in the mean and maximum lifespan by 9 - 16% and 14%, respectively [21810936]. | Worm | -9.6 to -16.1 | — | -13.7 |
| rrf-1 mutation | Although rrf-1(pk1417) mutants seem to have elevated DAF-16 activity (as sod-3 transcript level is increased) the mean and maximum lifespan or ability to withstand elevated temperature is not different from wild-type [22574120]. | Worm | — | — | — |

| bar-1 mutation | 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]. | Worm | -44 | — | -18 |
| bec-1 RNAi | 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]. | Worm | -14 | — | -5 |

| rict-1 RNAi | C. elegans with mutations in the TORC2 complex gene rict-1 (Rictor) grow slowly and have small body size, and live slightly longer than wild-type when maintained on ârichâ food such as the RNAi feeding strain HT115 and at elevuated temperature (25 degree Celsius) [Soukas et al., 2009 in (Robida-Stubbs et al., 2012)]. rict-1 RNAi at 20 degree Celsius in the adulthood increases mean, median, 75th %ile and maximum lifespan by 12-42, 22-29, 13-32 and 28-54%, respectively, dependent on skn-1. daf-16 is not required for lifespan to be increased by rict-1 RNAi, or when TORC1 and TORC2 are blocked by ragc-1;rict-1 RNAi. rict-1 RNAi extends mean, median, 75th %ile and maximum lifespan in the intestine-specific RNA stains VPS288 by 12-18, 19, 13-18 and 16%, respectively [22560223]. | Worm | +12 to +42 | +22 to +42 | +28 to +54 |
