SKN-1
Last updated
A transcription factor in C. elegans that regulates stress responses and is associated with extended lifespan.
Why it matters here
Like DAF-16, it appears in results reported in Caenorhabditis elegans. No compound in this corpus is graded on an SKN-1 finding.
What it is not
A nematode gene. A finding in C. elegans is not a finding in a person, and nothing here converts one into the other.
