DNA2

Symbol: DNA2
Name: DNA synthesis defective 2
Entrez gene ID: 856569
Ensembl gene ID: YHR164C
Species: Yeast (Taxid: 4932)

Functional description:
Dna2p; Tripartite DNA replication factor with single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase, ATP-dependent nuclease, and helicase activities; required for Okazaki fragment processing; involved in DNA repair; cell-cycle dependent localization [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001207] [Ensembl]

Observation:

Mutants in DNA2 exhibit an accelerated ageing phenotype including extended cell cycle time, age-related transcriptional silencing defects, and nucleolar reorganization, which are all phenotypes of old wild-type cells. Lifespan of DNA2 mutants is extended by expression of an additional copy of SIR2 or by deletion of FOB1 and therefore the lifespan shortening partially suppressed. Three different alleles of DNA2 (dna2-1, dna2-2, and dna2-20) result in a significant shortened lifespan up to 85%. DNA2 mutation shorten the already short lifespan of SGS1 mutants [12024027].
