Factors

We need to know every factor which determines lifespan.

Lifespan factors often but not always originate from defined genetic elements. They are not just genes, by definition they can be anything for which a Classifications schema can be build for that is related to the regulation of lifespan, such entities may include Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism, transcript variants, proteins and their complexes, compounds (i.e. small molecules like metabolites and drugs), etc. A factor should be based on a defined molecular entity or genomic position and been classified. It shall be highly flexible and scalable Concept.

While individual lifespan factors within each species or precise defined molecular entities will be captured within the Lifespan App, Data Entries of the Data App may summarize for instance the relevance of each factor class (e.g. homologous group; chemical derivate of related structure and properties, etc.) as well as draw overall conclusions. o

    RPL6A Ribosomal Protein of the Large subunit 6A Deletion of RPL6A decrease mean replicative lifespan by 25% in the alpha strain [18340043; 18423200], but increases mean replicative lifespan by 40% in the remade strain. Its deletion non-significantly increases mean replicative lifespan in the ORF collection [22377630]. Budding yeast
    LCB2 Long Chain Base 2 Downregulating LCB1 and LCB2, which encode subunits of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT), the first rate-limiting enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis, increases chronological lifespan. Myriocin, an inhibitor of SPT increases chronological lifespan in a dose-dependent manner. Downregulation of LCB1 or myriocin treatment reduces LCBS and LCBPs [22319457]. Budding yeast
    LCB1 Long Chain Base 1 Downregulating LCB1 and LCB2, which encode subunits of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT), the first rate-limiting enzyme in sphingolipid biosynthesis, increases chronological lifespan. Myriocin, an inhibitor of SPT increases chronological in a dose-dependent manner. Downregulation of LCB1 or myriocin treatment reduces LCBS and LCBPs [22319457]. Budding yeast
    HES1 Homologous to kES1 1 Deletion of HES1 (alias OSH5) extends replicative lifespan and is non-additive with moderate DR. Elevation of OSH5 levels by an ERG6 promoter reduces mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 25, 18 and 29%. HES1 is required for the longevity effect of DR, Perg6-OSH6, Perg6-ERG2 and Perg6-OSH7 (genetic mimetics of DR). Hes1 is upregulated in response to sterol down-regulation including DR. Deletion of OSH5 delays different steps of endocytosis, a sterol-requireing process [Xia et al., unpublished]. Perg6-OSH6 osh5 double mutant have a lifespan significantly shorter than that of Perg6-OSH6 [Xia et al. upublished]. Budding yeast
    SWH1 SWH1 (alias OSH1) deletion mutants have an extended replicative lifespan (p=0.02) and DR does not increase the long lifespan of SWH1 deletion mutants [Xia et al. unpublished]. Budding yeast
    AVO2 Adheres VOraciously (to TOR2) Deletion of AVO2 extends chronological lifespan [21641548]. Budding yeast
    TCO89 Tor Complex One TCO89 deletion increases chronological lifespan, increases mitochondrial oxygen consumption, but decreases mitochondrial and cellular ROS in early stationary phase [21641548]. Deletion of TCO89 cancels out replicative lifespan extension by moderate DR [18690010]. Budding yeast
    GTS1 Glycine Threonine Serine repeat protein 1 Deletion or overexpression of GTS1 shortens replicative lifespan significantly and slightly, respectively (wt:26, Delta:16 and OE:24) [8573138]. Budding yeast
    UGA3 Utilization of GAba 3 Deletion of UGA3 increases mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 75% and 63%, respectively [20550517] Budding yeast
    UGA1 Utilization of GAba 1 Deletion of UGA2 extends replicative lifespan [21371425]. Budding yeast
    GAD1 GlutAmate Decarboxylase GAD1 deletion extends replicative lifespan [21371425]. Budding yeast
    TRM9 TRna Methyltransferase 9 TRM9 deletion almost triples mean chronological lifespan under starvation/extreme DR, increases heat resistance, but reduces resistance to acetic acid. Similar effect were present in the BY746 background in SDC medium [20657825]. Budding yeast
    CKA2 CK2 subunit 2 CKA2 deletion approximately doubles mean chronological lifespan under starvation/extreme DR in BY4741 also increases as well as as heat-shock resistance in SDC medium in the W303-1A and DBY746 genetic backgrounds [20657825]. Budding yeast
    LEU3 LEUcine biosynthesis 3 LEU3 deletion dramatically increases chronological lifespan [19302372]. Budding yeast
