Abstract excerpt
A quantitative dot blot analysis was performed to determine whether the expression of the EF-1 alpha genes of Drosophila melanogaster are associated with the extended longevity phenotype characteristic of our genetically selected long-lived strain. These data were compared to that obtained from two normal-lived strains and from two iso-chromosomal strains with an intermediate life span. The relative mRNA levels...
