GenAge entry for itr-1 (Caenorhabditis elegans)
Gene information (ID: 949)
- Symbol
- itr-1
- Name
- Inositol Triphosphate Receptor
- Organism
- Caenorhabditis elegans (AnAge)
Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing
- Observations
- Increased ITR-1 activity extends median and maximum lifespan (53% increase of median lifespan, 29% increase of maximum lifespan), whereas reduced ITR-1 activity shortens culture survival (i.e., -11% increase of median lifespan, -31% increase of maximum lifespan)
- % change in max lifespan
- Maximum lifespan is 29% higher.
- % change in avg or median lifespan
- Median lifespan is 53% higher.
- Lifespan Effect
- Increase
- Genetic Manipulation
- Overexpression or mutations
