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

    ZDS2 Zillion Different Screens 2 Deletion of ZDS2 decreases replicative lifespan by about 20% [10662670]. ZDS2 null mutation decreases rDNA silencing five-fold, increases silencing at a mutant HMR that lacks the Rap1-binding site in the HNR-E silencer three-fold, and has no effect on telomeric silencing. ZDS2 deletion decreases rDNA silencing, increases rDNA recombination, and increases level of phosphorylated Sir3 [10662670]. Budding yeast
    ZDS1 Zillion Different Screens 1 Deletion of ZDS1 increases replicative lifespan by 37% in a SIR3-dependent manner [10662670]. Null mutation in ZDS1 causes 100-fold decrease in telomeric silencing, a nine-fold increase in rDNA silencing, reduces rDNA recombination, and decreases Sir3 phosphorylation [10662670]. Budding yeast
    ZTA1 Zeta-crystallin homolog, found in the cytoplasm and nucleus; has similarity to E. coli quinone oxidoreductase and to human zeta-crystallin, which has quinone oxidoreductase activity Deletion of ZTA1 increases replicative lifespan by 15% in the alpha strain and decreased by 10% in the a strain [18340043]. Although ZTA1 was identified as a potential long-lived mutant strain in a bar-code screen, deletion of ZTA1 does not significantly affect chronological lifespan under starvation/extreme DR [20657825]. Budding yeast
    UTH1 yoUTH 1 Mutation in UTH1 increases replicative lifespan by approximately 15% [7859289]. UTH1 mutant has enhanced stress resistance to cold stress [7859289], heat shock [10870102], starvation [7859289], hydrogen peroxide, but is sensitive to paraquat and oxygen [9799359]. Budding yeast
    YVH1 Yeast vaccinia virus VH1 Homolog 1 Deletion of YVH1 increases replicative lifespan by 50% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    YUH1 Yeast Ubiquitin Hydrolase 1 Deletion of YUH1 decreases replicative lifespan decreased 30% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    YPT7 Yeast Protein Two 7 YPT7 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 15% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Deletion of YPT7 cancels out replicative lifespan extension of 0.5% glucose restriction and results under DR also into a shorter replicative lifespan than under AL [18690010]. Budding yeast
    YPT6 Yeast Protein Two 6 Deletion of YPT6 increases replicative lifespan by 20% [19030232]. YPT6 deletion increases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain and by 10% in the a strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    YPT32 Yeast Protein Two 32 Deletion increases mean chronological lifespan by 13 - 45% (13, 17, 45) in diploid cells [21447998]. Budding yeast
    YPK1 Yeast Protein Kinase 1 Deletion of YPK1 decreases replicative lifespan by 20% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    YPC1 Yeast Phyto-Ceramidase 1 Deletion of YPC1 decreases replicative lifespan by 15% in the alpha strain [19030232]. Budding yeast
    YOS9 Yeast OS-9 homolog Deletion of YOS9 decreases replicative lifespan by 10% in the alpha strain [19030232]. Budding yeast
    YOR1 Yeast Oligomycin Resistance 1 Deletion of YOR1 increases mean chronological lifespan by 21 - 25% (21, 24, 25) in diploid cells [21447998]. Budding yeast
    YME1 Yeast Mitochondrial Escape 1 Deletion of YME1 decreases chronological lifespan by 50% [17492370] as well as replicative lifespan by 45% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    YHC3 Yeast Homolog of human Cln3 YHC3 deletion decreases 10-20% shortened lifespan [16435200]. Budding yeast
    YHB4 Yeast HemogloBin-like protein 4 sfa1;yhb1 double mutant cancels out the ability of moderate DR to extend replicative lifespan, but not chronological lifespan. Indicating that NO homeostasis during DR-induced replicative lifespan extension is crucial. Deleting YHB1 partially abolished DR-induced replicative lifespan extension, whereas deleting SFA1 alone had no effect. Yhb1 and Sfa1 may play redundant roles [21584246]. Budding yeast
    YFH1 Yeast Frataxin Homolog 1 Deletion of YFH1 decreases replicative lifespan by 50% [15130665]. Budding yeast
    YDC1 Yeast DihydroCeramidase 1 Overexpression of YDC1 decreases chronological lifespan by 40% [19059240] Budding yeast

    VPS8 Vacuolar Protein Sorting 8 Lack of VPS8 reduces lifespan under starvation conditions to a level similiar to that of wild-type cells incubated in synthetic complete medium and therefore blocked the lifespan-extending effect of DR [20657825]. Budding yeast
    VPS51 Vacuolar Protein Sorting 51 Deletion of VPS51 increases mean chronological lifespan by 6 - 10% (6, 7, 8, 9, 10) in diploid cells [21447998]. Budding yeast
