- Name
- blue cheese
- Organism
- Drosophila melanogaster (AnAge)
- Known functions and activities
- Scaffolding protein
- Observations
- Mean lifespan is decreased 40-45% in bchs mutant adults. No pronounced developmental defects were observed and young adults have normal behaviors, indicating that the bchs gene is essential for normal adult survival and longevity.
