Indy (gene)

Indy (gene)

Indy, short for I'm not dead yet, is a gene of the model organism, the fruitfly "Drosophila melanogaster". Mutant versions of this gene doubles the fruitflies' average lifespan. Its name originates from a repeated comic line in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"" [http://tinman.vetmed.helsinki.fi/eng/drosophila.html Clever Drosophila gene names] ]
