RE: Could the first person to live to 150 be alive right now? (maybe it's you)

To make the post more accurate you should change your use of daf-2 or DAF-2 to "insulin receptor" gene or protein. Since you are referring to humans. The daf-2 gene or DAF-2 protein is the C. elegans (nematode worm) homolog of the human insulin receptor.

right, thank you. I put in FOXO3A for the daf-16 gene, but neglected it on the daf-2 part. Thanks.
