Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing
- Observations
- A loss-of-function mutation in lin-14 extended lifespan by 31% while a gain-of-function mutation decreased lifespan. The life-extending effects were dependent on daf-16 and hsf-1. Also, lin-14 is a target of lin-4.
- % change in avg or median lifespan
- Average lifespan is 31% higher.
