Genetic mutants with sod-2, sod-5 alterations

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

    20

  • Lifespan (days)

    24.6

  • Lifespan change (compared to wild type)

    38.98%

  • 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-5(tm1246) has a lifespan of 24.6 days, while single mutant sod-2(ok1030) has a lifespan of 27.2 days, single mutant sod-5(tm1246) has a lifespan of 16.4 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.

Superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn]


Locus: CELE_ZK430.3


Wormbase description: sod-5 encodes one of five superoxide (SOD) isozymes in C. elegans; along with SOD-1, SOD-5 is predicted to be one of two cytoplasmic Cu/Zn SODs in C. elegans; sod-5 expression is increased in sod-1 mutant animals and likewise, sod-1 expression is increased in sod-5 mutants, suggesting a possible mechanism of functional compensation between these two genes; the sod-5 promoter contains one copy of a DAF-16 binding element, consistent with observations that sod-5 mRNA levels increase in insulin/IGF-1 signaling pathway mutants.
