Genetic factors affecting life span in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
The nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans has become a model system for the analysis of the genetics of aging. Previously, mutations in four genes, age-1, clk-1, daf-2 and daf-28 had been shown to lengthen adult life span. Based on the molecular genetic analysis of these genes, the sole function of t...
