    PAN2 deletion Deletion mutant of PAN2 live approximately as long as wild-type under starvation/extreme DR [20657825]. Yeast
    shc-1 knockout Loss of shc-1 function results in accelerated aging and enhanced senstivity ro heat, oxidative stress and heavy metals. Worm
    Ilp2 mutation Ilp2 null mutants are significant longer-lived with a 8-13% longer median lifespan [20195512]. Fly +8 to +13
    foxo mutation foxo null mutants are highly and significantly shorter-lived than wild-type on all food dilutions apart from 0.1 SY and under starvation. foxo null mutants are not more sensitive to starvation than wild-type [18241326]. Fly
    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
    mdt-15 mutation mdt-15(tm2182) mutation does not affect lifespan on ad libitum, but further increases the lifespan when combined with DR (starting at the 4th day of adulthood) even more as wild-type [22132200]. Worm
    nlp-7 mutation Lifespan of nlp-7 mutants increases only moderately by sDR [19783783]. Worm
    unc-51 mutation unc-51(e369) mutation reduces mean but extends maximum lifespan. unc-51(e369) mutation reduces lifespan of eat-2(ad1116) mutants to that of wild-type [18219227]. Worm
    ctbp-1 mutation Genetic inactivation of ctbp-1 results in lifespan extension dependent on daf-16, but independent of sir-2.1. RNAi of lips-7(C09E8.2) suppresses lifespan extension by ctbp-1 inactivation [19164523]. Worm
    Cisd2 knockout Cisd2 knockout shortens lifespan resulting in premature aging [19451219]. Mouse
    sgg transposition Several insertions of P-based vectors in the structural part of sgg are associated with alterations of male and female lifespan [22661237]. Fly
    ife-2 mutation Loss-of-function mutation in ife-2 reduces protein synthesis and increases maximum lifespan by about 20%. It does not extend the lifespan of daf-16(RNAi) animals. TOR/let-373 RNA interference further extends lifespan of ife-2 mutants. Reduction of protein synthesis increases ATP availability and stress resistance [17266679]. Worm +20
    HPR1 deletion Deletion of HPR1 decreases replicative lifespan [11756539] Yeast
    CIT2 deletion Deletion of CIT2 has no effect on replicative lifespan [10224252]. Yeast
    clk-2 mutation Mutations in clk-2 slow down development and extend lifespan by 12-25% (at 20 degree Celsius in Bristol N2). clk-2 mutation slows growth and rhythms similar to clk-1. Mutation in clk-2 is embryonic lethal at 25 degree Celsius and results in some lethality at all temperatures [8638122]. clk-2 encodes a protein involved in DNA repair and perhaps telomere maintenance [14-16 in (Lee et al., 2003)]. clk-2 mutation affects telomere length and might result in shorter [11696330] or longer telomeres [11747819]. clk-2 overexpression may shorten telomeres [11747819]. Worm
    clk-3 mutation Mutations in clk-3 slow down development and extend adult lifespan (at 20 degree Celsius in Bristol N2). clk-3 mutation slows growth and rhythms similiar to clk-1a and profounds maternal and zygotic rescue [8638122]. Worm
    COQ3 deletion Deletion of COQ3 decreases chronological lifespan and renders cells respiratory deficient and sensitive to hydrogen peroxide [12586694]. Yeast
    CPR7 deletion Deletion of CPR7 has no effect on lifespan replicative lifespan, but increases chronological lifespan [11361336] Yeast
    CTF4 deletion Deletion of CTF4 results in an approximately 75% reduced mean replicative lifespan [12024027]. Yeast
    CYT1 deletion Deletion of CYT1 increases replicative lifespan by 15% in the alpha strain and decreases replicative lifespan by 20% in a strain. Deletion of CYT1 decreases replicative lifespan and cancels out replicative lifespan extension by HAP4 overexpression. Initially, it was shown that deletion of CYT1 also prevents lifespan extension by 0.5% glucose restriction [12124627], but later it was shown that either 0.5 or 0.05 % glucose restriction increases replicative lifespan of cyt1Delta cells [16311627]. Yeast
    daf-12 mutation Mutations in daf-2 and daf-12, but not mutations in daf-12 alone, nearly quadruples lifespan [7789761]. Recessive loss of function mutation in daf-12 shortens lifespan. daf-12 activity is required for lifespan extension after germ line ablation [10360574]. daf-12 mutation suppresses the lifespan extension by mutation in daf-28 [8807293]. daf-12 mutants are dauer defective and heterochronic [7219552]. Some daf-12 alleles exhibit synthetic lethality with mutation of age-1 [8807293] or daf-12 [1732156]. Worm
    daf-18 mutation daf-18 is required for complete dauer formation. daf-18 mutation partially suppresses the lifespan extension of age-1 and daf-2 mutants. daf-18 mutants are defective for dauer formation and form some dauer-like larvae when starved [7789761; 8601482]. Worm
    FOB1 deletion Mutation in FOB1 extends replicative lifespan by 30-50% [10230397]. FOB1 mutation increases replicative lifespan by 25% in the alpha strain and by 10% in a strain [19030232]. FOB1 mutant exhibit an about 20% mean replicative lifespan increase [15722108]. Deletion of FOB1 causes extension in the short life span of the sir2 mutant by around 50% [10521401]. Mutation of the FOB1 gene slows the generation of rDNA circles and thus extends life span by approximately 30% in W303 and 50% in K2307 [10230397]. Even in cells lacking both Sir2 and Fob1, nicotinamide prevents the lifespan extension by DR [16311627]. Yeast
    GAL83 deletion Deletion of GAL83 has no effect on replicative lifespan in S228C [10921902] and general GAL83 mutants have no obvious phenotype [10990457]. Yeast
    HDA1 deletion Deletion of HDA1 has no effect on longevity under AL, but acts synergistically with 0.1% glucose restriction to increase replicative lifespan [12213553]. Deletion of HDA1 leads to a slightly increased chronological lifespan [19801973]. Deletion of HDA1 has no effect on the wild-type lifespan in the short-lifespan of YSK771 strain, but suppresses the short-lifespan of SIR3 mutants [10512855]. Null mutation results in increased telomeric silencing and increased histone acetylation [8962081]. Yeast
