Table 1. Longevity of 45 EP lines induced by da-Gal4.

Forty-five isogenic EP lines, in which an EP is inserted in the same orientation of normal transcription, were crossed with either isogenic CS10 or isogenic da-Gal4. Lifespans of their male progeny were measured at 25°C. The target genes of these EP lines are categorized into 8 groups, based on their functions. Fifteen EP lines that as da-Gal4CS10 >EPCS10 presented significantly longer mean lifespan than EPCS10/+CS10, da-Gal4CS10/+CS10 (33.6 d) and +CS10/+CS10 (33.4 d) were selected as longevity candidates (bold type; p < 0.001 by Log-Lank test). Five EP lines (GX193, GX7554, GX5503-1, GX8277, and GX6548) were lethal when induced by da-Gal4. Human homologs of these genes are indicated in the parentheses. Mean lifespan (MLS), maximum lifespan (MaxLS, day when the final survivor died), and increased lifespan (ILS, ratio of da-Gal4CS10 >EPCS10 to EPCS10/+CS10) are presented with the number (n) of flies tested.
