Caenorhabditis elegans GenDR Dietary Restriction Gene Manipulation: hif-1

Gene Information (Entrez Gene ID: 180359)

Symbol
hif-1
Name
HIF (hypoxia inducible factor) homolog 1
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans (AnAge)
Entrez Gene ID
180359

Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

One study found that hif-1 mutation does not suppress lifespan extension of bacterial dilution DR or eat-2 mutation [2434]. hif-1 deletion extends lifespan by 24% and inhibition of hif-1 by RNAi also extends adult lifespan. hif-1 mutation extends lifespan under ad lib, but does not further extend lifespan extension under modified solid DR [2571].
