Description

Aging in C. elegans involves measurable declines in morphology, reproduction, and behavior. Understanding the cellular and molecular processes leading to senescence in this nematode began in the early 1980s with the targeted identification of mutants that extended life span (an AGE phenotype). These studies identified at least two key regulators of life span, DAF-2, an insulin/IGF receptor ortholog, and DAF-16, a Forkhead-related transcription factor. Since then many more genes and pathways involved in senescence have been identified. Almost all of these genes play important roles in cellular and organismal-level processes other than aging, such as dauer formation, stress response, feeding, and chemosensation.

14-3-3GeneProduct
AGE-1/PI3KGeneProductB0334.8 (WormBase) age-1 encodes a homologue of mammalian phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase catalytic subunit.
AKT-1/Akt/PKBGeneProductC12D8.10 (WormBase)
AKT-2/Akt/PKBGeneProductF28H6.1 (WormBase)
DAF-16/FOXOGeneProductR13H8.1 (WormBase)
  • PRMT-1 specifically methylates the C terminus of the forkhead domain (FH-C) in DAF-16 blocking binding to 14-3-3 protein.
  • DAF-16 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm as a result of inhibitory phosphorylation of Ser/Thr residues by the AKT and SGK kinases.
  • T242 is an AKT-mediated phosphorylation site in DAF-16
DAF-18/PTENGeneProductT07A9.6 (WormBase)
  • daf-18 functions upstream to akt-1 and akt-2
  • daf-18 acts downstream of age-1
DAF-2/InRGeneProductY55D5A.5 (WormBase) insulin/IGF-1 pathway can diverge to regulate the timing of reproduction independently of longevity (Dillin et al., 2002a).
JKK-1GeneProductF35C8.3 (WormBase)
JNK-1GeneProductB0478.1 (WormBase)
  • DAF-16 binds to JNK-1.
  • JNK-1 binds and phosphorylates DAF-16.
PDK-1/PKD1GeneProductH42K12.1 (WormBase)
PRMT-1GeneProductY113G7B.17 (WormBase)
RLE-1GeneProductM142.6 (WormBase)
  • age-1 encodes a homologue of mammalian phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase catalytic subunit.
  • RLE-1 physically interacts with DAF-16. RLE-1 C terminus is required for the interaction of RLE-1 with DAF-16.
SGK-1GeneProductW10G6.2 (WormBase) DAF-16 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm as a result of inhibitory phosphorylation of Ser/Thr residues by the AKT and SGK kinases.
SMK-1GeneProductF41E6.4 (WormBase)
  • SMK-1 was temporally and spatially colocalized with active DAF-16.
  • smk-1 RNAi does not cause a general sickness in long-lived animals but rather specifically affects IIS-regulated life span.
  • DAF-16 and SMK-1 do not directly or indirectly regulate expression or localization of one another.
  • SMK-1 specifies the longevity function of DAF-16 by affecting the efficiency of transcription of DAF-16 target genes involved in oxidative and UV stress response and innate immunity but is not required for DAF-16 regulation of heat-stress-response genes.
daf-15GeneProductC10C5.6 (WormBase) Reduced smk-1 resulted in increased expression of daf-15 mRNA, suggesting that SMK-1 is required for the transcriptional repressor activity of DAF-16
