Caenorhabditis elegansGenAge entry for tmem-135 (Caenorhabditis elegans)

Gene information (ID: 992)

Symbol
tmem-135
Name
K02G10.3
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans (AnAge)

Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing

Observations
Deletion of the tmem135 orthologue in C. elegans caused a 41.8% (62.8%) reduction in fat stores, a reduction in mitochondrial action potential and decreased longevity of the worm. In stark contrast, C. elegans transgenic animals overexpressing TMEM-135 exhibited increased longevity upon exposure to cold stress.
