Genetic mutants with sod-2, sod-4 alterations

    Names of genes are ordered alphabetically. For the order of interventions, please see the specific paper.
  • Temperature °C

    20

  • Lifespan (days)

    26.8

  • Lifespan change (compared to wild type)

    51.41%

  • Phenotype

    Among the sod-2 double deletion mutants, all of the worms maintained the extended lifespan seen in sod-2 single deletion mutants indicating that in no case is the upregulation of another sod gene entirely responsible for the long life observed in sod-2 mutant worms 

  • Lifespan comparisons

    Double mutant sod-2(ok1030);sod-4(gk101) has a lifespan of 26.8 days, while single mutant sod-2(ok1030) has a lifespan of 27.2 days, single mutant sod-4(gk101) has a lifespan of 19.1 days and wild type has a lifespan of 17.7 days.

Superoxide dismutase [Mn] 1, mitochondrial


Locus: CELE_F10D11.1


Wormbase description: sod-2 encodes a iron/manganese superoxide dismutase, predicted to be mitochondrial, that might defend against oxidative stress and promote normal lifespan; sod-2 mRNA levels are diminished by mutation of daf-16, and heterologously expressed SOD-2 in E. coli protects against methyl viologen-induced oxidative stress.

Locus: CELE_F55H2.1


Wormbase description: sod-4 encodes an extracellular Cu2+/Zn2+ superoxide dismutase (SOD) that is one of five C. elegans SOD enzymes; genetic analyses indicates that sod-4 is required for redox regulation of a number of processes including axon pathfinding in the PVQ interneurons, insulin/IGF-1 signaling, and vulval development; large-scale expression studies indicate that sod-4 is expressed in the nervous system, intestine, and rectal gland cells; sod-4 transcripts are significantly upregulated in dauers.
