⚙ How is this computed? Methods: Cross-Species Comparison

Gene Longevity Correlation

Query the Spearman rank correlation between a gene's expression level and maximum lifespan across all LACA species in which the queried gene has a confidently mapped ortholog and detectable expression; the exact species set is reported with each result.

Accepts any standard HGNC gene symbol

The PGLS statistics above control for phylogenetic relatedness (TimeTree5 time-calibrated phylogeny, Pagel's ฮป estimated by maximum likelihood) and adult body mass. All correlations in LACA are descriptive, species-level associations intended for hypothesis generation; they are not evidence of convergent evolution, natural selection, or causation.
Interpretation: The expression of MTOR shows a negligible negative correlation with maximum lifespan (ฯ = -0.0462). However, this association is not statistically significant (P = 0.6269). Based on cross-species comparison of 113 species.
