Symbol: MXR1 Name: peptide Methionine sulfoXide Reductase 1 Alias: MSRA; MsrA Entrez gene ID: 856765 Ensembl gene ID: YER042W Species: Yeast (Taxid: 4932) Functional description: Mxr1p; Methionine-S-sulfoxide reductase, involved in the response to oxidative stress; protects iron-sulfur clusters from oxidative inactivation along with MXR2; involved in the regulation of lifespan [Source:SGD;Acc:S000000844] [Ensembl] Observation: Deletion of MXR1 (alias MsrA) decreases by 25% and overexpression slightly increases the replicative lifespan [15141092]. Deletion of MXR1 decreases replicative lifespan [19049972]. MXR1 deletion decreases replicative lifespan on either glucose or lactate as carbon source [20799725]. Although deletion or overexpression of MXR2 (alias MsrB) has no effect under normal growth conditions, the simultaneous deletion of MXR1 and MXR2 reduces the lifespan by 63% [15141092].
