Enigma, a mitochondrial protein affecting lifespan and oxidative stress response in Drosophila

Deregulation of energy metabolism by external interventions or mutations in metabolic genes can extend lifespan in a wide range of species. We describe mutations in Drosophila melanogaster that confer resistance to oxidative stress and display a longevity phenotype. These phenotypes are associated w...
