A Manually Curated Knowledgebase of Aging across a variety of Species

Details


Name WRN
Type somatic mutation
Species Mus musculus
Tissue Murine embryonic fibroblasts
Experiment Method Western Blotting;qPCR
Up/Down NA
Pro/Anti Pro
Funtion Description Importantly, WRN(-/-);p53(-/-) mice show an increased mortality rate relative to WRN(+/-);p53(-/-) animals. We consider possible models for the synergy between p53 and WRN mutations for the determination of life span.
Regulation Gene WRN
Year 2000
Pubmed ID 10757812
Title Mutations in the WRN gene in mice accelerate mortality in a p53-null background.
