    Sir2 mutation A decrease in Sir2 (alias dSir2) blocks the life-extending effect of caloric reduction or rpd3 mutations [15520384]. Sir2 mutation does not reduce lifespan under AL [15520384]. Fly
    Mnt Mutation A dMnt null allele results in flies with larger cells, increased weight, and decreased lifespan [16055719]. Fly
    hypomoprhic hep mutation A hypomorphic allele of hep (hep1) laerlgy prevents lifespan extension caused by puc heterozygosity [14602080]. Fly
    Nlaz mutation Absence of Nlaz, which is homologous to ApoD, results in a reduced lifespan in both sexes. Median lifespan is 30.8% and 22.5% lower in females and males, respectively. Maximum lifespan is reduced by 12% and 30% in females and males [21376794]. Fly -22.5 to -30.8 -12 to -30
    Ilp5 mutation Abundance of Ilp5 mRNA is reduced under DR. Ilp5 null mutants have a normal lifespan under AL and a normal DR response. Ilp2 Ilp3 Ilp5 triple null mutants fail to have a normal response to DR. Their response is right shifted, with mutants being shorter-lived compared to wild-type on low but longer-lived on high yeast concentrations [20195512]. Fly
    Akt1 mutation Akt1 homozygotous have a significantly decreased lifespan [11292874]. Heterozygous Akt1 animals form dwarfs [11292874]. Fly
    alpha-Man-I mutation alpha-Man-I mutant fly exhibit enhanced resistance to paraquat and starvation an a 60% increase in mean lifespan for both sexes. After outcrossing, the mutant exhibit, under normal conditions, an increase in mean lifespan of 22% for females and 38% for males. Maximum lifespan is increased by 15% [19302370]. Fly +22 to +60 +15
    Hsp22 transposition Animals that do not express Hsp22 (due to a transposition into its transcriptional starting site) have a 40% decrease in lifespan, exhibit a 30% decrease in locomotor activity and are sensitive to mild stress [20036725]. Fly -40
    Bam mutation Bam mutants have an extended lifespan due to germ cell loss. Lifespan of females is on average up to 50% higher and that of males on average s up to 27.8% higher [18434551]. Fly +27.8 to +50
    Bmcp knockout Bmcp knockout flies live longer on low-calorie diets, have a decreased fertility, and gain less weight on high-calorie diets. Bmcp (ucp5) knockout mutants live longer than wild-type on low-calorie diets, but no longer on starvation or high-calorie diets. Ectopic neuronal expression of Bmcp transgene rescues starvation sensitive phenotype of Bmcp knockout mutants [16387864]. Fly
    bwa mutation bwa (alias Dacer) inactivation increases Drosophila pre-adult development time and anti-oxidative stress capacity. Mean lifespan is increased by 16% in females, by 21% in males and by 19% in total. Maximum lifespan of females, males is also extended by 20 and 12%, respectively [20112046]. Fly +16 to +21 +12 to +20
    dnc mutation cAMP phosphodiesterase-deficient dunce mutants have an extended maximum lifespan by about 70% [17369827]. Fly +70
    Cdk5 mutation Cdk5 loss-of-function mutations result in defective axon guidance, age-dependent behavioral deficits and reduced lifespan by about one third [17368005]. Fly
    cert mutation CG7207 mutants exhibit a shortened lifespan accompanied by enhanced oxidative damage to cellular proteins and metabolic compromise, such as increasing glucose levels, reminiscent of premature aging [17592126]. Fly
    Scgdelta deletion Deletion of Scgdelta has detrimental effects on the flight muscles of adult animals and heart function. Median lifespan is reduced 15-30% [17855453]. Fly -15 to -30
    SNF4Agamma deletion Deletion of SNF4Agamma from the first day of the imaginal stage shortens mean lifespan by 23% and causes morphological and behavioural features of premature aging [18219227]. Fly -23
    esg transposition Disruption of esg by insertion of the P{GT1} vector 300 bp downstream of its structural part increases male and female lifespan [22661237]. Fly
    DLP mutation DLP mutants have a 20% shorter mean lifespan and reduced female fertility [17933869]. Fly -20
    Prx5 mutation dprx5(-/-) null mutants are comparatively more susceptible to oxidative stress, have higher incidence of apoptosis, and a shortened mean lifespan, but thee is no significant difference in maximum lifespan (10% survival) [21826223]. Fly
    elav mutation elav mutation significantly decreases the lifespan. Median lifespan in males is 66% lower [20589912]. Fly
    Dominant negative Tor Expression of a dominant-negative form of Tor extends lifespan [15186745]. Ubiquitious overexpression of dTOR with the da-GAL4 driver of UAS-dTOR(FRB) which contains the 11kDA FKB12-rapamycin binding domain led to a mean and maximum lifespan increase of 15% (24%) and 29% at 29°C and of 50% (26%) and 13% at 25°C, respectively [15186745]. Overexpression of the dominant-negative form of Tor specifically in the fat and muscle tissues is sufficient to extend the mean and maximum lifespan by 24 and 19%, respectively [15186745]. Overexpression of UAS-dTOR(WT) or UAS-dTOR(TED) prevents eclosion to adulthood [15186745]. Fly +15 to +50 +13 to +29
    p53 dominant negative overexpression Expression of dominant-negative versions of p53 in adult neurons extends lifespan by 58% in females and by 32% in males and increases resistance to genotoxic stress and resistance to oxidative stress, but not to starvation or heat stress, while not affecting egg production or physical activity. Dominant negative Dmp53 expression cancels out lifespan extension effect of DR, low calorie-food (5% SY). Muscle or fat body specific expression of a dominant negative form of Dmp53 as well as globally lack of Dmp53 decreases lifespan [16303568]. Expression of dominant-negative (DN) form of p53 in adult neurons, but not in muscle or fat body cells, extends median lifespan by 19% and maximum lifespan by 8%. The lifespan of dietary-restricted flies is not further extended by simultaneously expressing DN-DMp53 in the nervous system, indicating that a decrease in Dmp53 activity may be part of the DR lifespan-extending effect. Selective expression of DN-Dmp53 in only the 14 insulin-producing cell (IPCs) in the brain extends lifespan to the same extent as expression in all neurons and this lifespan extension is not additive with DR [17686972]. Fly +32 to +58 +19 +8
    mld heterozygous mutation Female, but not male, heterozygous mutants display a 42% increase in mean lifespan at 29 degrees Celsius. DTS-3 +/- female adults exhibit a 50% reduced ecdysone titer and reduced fertility [12610309]. Female, but not male, heterozygoutes also exhibit a temperature-dependent increase in starvation resistance. Fly +42
    l(3)DTS3 mutation Female, but not male, heterozygous mutants exhibit a 42% increase in mean lifespan [12610309]. Fly +42
    E(z) mutation Flies heterozygous for the protein null E(z)63 or the catalytically inactive E(z)731 mutation that are progeny of an out-cross to an Oregon-R (O-R) wild-type strain exhibit a substantially greater median lifespan than the O-R control (71% and 76%, respectively). When derived from an out-cross to a longer-lived Canton-S (C-S) wild-type strain, the median lifespan of E(z)63 heterozygous is 33% longer than the C-S control [20018689]. Fly +33 to +76
