Caenorhabditis elegans GenDR Dietary Restriction Gene Manipulation: nlp-7

Gene Information (Entrez Gene ID: 184647)

Symbol
nlp-7
Name
Neuropeptide-Like Protein
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans (AnAge)
Entrez Gene ID
184647

Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

nlp-7 RNAi or overexpression reduces oxidative stress resistance and shortens lifespan of wild-type under ad lib. nlp-7 RNAi significantly reduces extended lifespan of eat-2 mutants, but failed to block lifespan extension of age-1 or clk-1 mutants. Lifespan of nlp-7 mutants increases only moderately by solid DR [2574].
