Journal ArticleDOI

Remarkable longevity and stress resistance of nematode PI3K-null mutants.

TL;DR: PI3K‐null adults, although a little less thermotolerant, are considerably more resistant to oxidative and electrophilic stresses than worms bearing normal or less long‐lived alleles, and are attributed to elimination of residual and maternally contributed PI3KCS or its products, and consequent modification of kinase signaling cascades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discrimination of primer 3'-nucleotide mismatch by taq DNA polymerase during polymerase chain reaction

TL;DR: Conditions which allow robust discrimination for PCR-mediated analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and for reduction in complexity of anchor-ligation PCR products are defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of lipid biosynthesis contributes to stress resistance and longevity of C. elegans mutants

TL;DR: A functional model in which longevity benefits from a reduction in lipid peroxidation substrates, offset by a coordinate decline in fatty-acid chain length to maintain membrane fluidity is suggested, tested by disrupting the underlying steps in lipid biosynthesis.
