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

    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
    YHC3 Yeast Homolog of human Cln3 YHC3 deletion decreases 10-20% shortened lifespan [16435200]. Budding yeast
    VPS20 Vacuolar Protein Sorting 20 VPS20 deletion decreases mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 16% and 19%, respectively, and additionally cancels out the DR-induced replicative lifespan extension [22912585]. Budding yeast
    VMA2 Vacuolar Membrane Atpase 2 VMA2 deletion mutants have a reduced ΔΨ and mitochondrial morphology similar to aged cells. The restoration of the vacuolar acidity in daughter cells requires V-ATPase activity as it is eliminated in VMA2 deletion mutant cells [23172144]. VMA2 deletion mutation decreases the mean replicative lifespan by 80% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Deletion of VMA2 decreases mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 84%, 84% and 70%, respectively. DR (0.5% glucose restriction) does not extend the replicative lifespan of VMA2 and shortens it even more [23172144]. Budding yeast
    VAM7 VAcuolar Morphogenesis 7 VAM7 deletion decreases replicative lifespan under AL and blocked DR-mediated lifespan extension. Replicative lifespan decreases by 70% on DR in VAM7 deletion mutant [18690010]. Budding yeast
    VAC14 VACuole morphology and inheritance mutant 14 VAC14 mutants have a single vacuole and shortened lifespan on normal media [16293764]. Budding yeast
    ATG16 AuTophaGy related 16 Under AL atg16 mutation shortens chronological, but not replicative lifespan. 0.5% glucose DR extends chronological lifespan of atg16 mutants, but amino-acid DR does not extend the short chronological lifespan of atg16 mutants (similar to several other autophagy mutants). ADE4 deletion in atg16 mutants results only in a partial extension of chronological lifespan by 0.5% glucose DR. The long chronological lifespan of tor1 mutants requires ATG16 [20421943]. Budding yeast
    IPT1 InositolPhosphoTransferase 1 Transposon-mediated mutation of IPT1 increases oxidative stress resistance and chronological lifespan by 40% [16527275]. IPT1 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain [19030232]. Budding yeast
    NDT80 Non-DiTyrosine 80 Transient overexpression of NDT80 rejuvenates old cells [21700873]. Budding yeast
    IME1 Inducer of MEiosis 1 Transient overexpression of IME1 resets the replicative lifespan of old cells back to that of young cells [21700873]. Budding yeast
    CDC7 Cell Division Cycle 7 Transient inactivation of CDC7 results in a shortened replicative lifespan [2698814]. CDC7 participates in silencing and RAS2 modulates its activity [1990268]. Budding yeast
    SOD1 SuperOxide Dismutase 1 The overexpression of Sods, mitochondrial Sod2 and cytosolic CuZnSod (Sod1), in combination delays the age-dependent reversible inactivation of mitochondrial aconitase, a superoxide-sensitive enzyme, and extends chronological lifespan by 30% [12586694]. Deletion of SOD1 decreases replicative lifespan by 40% [17460215]. Overexpression of SOD1 with CCS1 levuates the level of Cn, Zn-Sod activity and increased chronological lifespan. However overexpression of SOD1 without high cooper or simultonous overexpression of CCS1 shortened both chronological and replicative lifespan [15659212]. Overexpression of SOD1 has no effect on replicative lifespan [10224252]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative lifespan by approximately 40%. The magnitude of the decrease in lifespan does not appear to dependent on oxygen concentration in the atmosphere [12020810]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative lifespan [10547026]. Deletion of SOD1 shortens replicative as well as chronological lifespan [10222047]. Cells with a deletion of SOD1 exhibit a profound defect in entry into and survival during stationary phase (i.e. chronological lifespan) in the W303-B strain [8647826; 10222047], which is partially suppressed by expression of human Bcl-2 [9199172]. Hypersensitivity to oxygene and significantly decreased replicative lifespan of SOD1 deletion can be ameliorated by exogenous ascorbate. If acorbate's negative effects of auto-oxidation are prevented by exchange of medium, ascorbate prolongs mean and maximum replicative lifespan in the atmosphere of air and pure oxygene [15621721]. SOD1 deletion causes sensitivity to hyperoxia as well as methionine and lysine auxotrohies [9199172]. Budding yeast
    TEC1 Transposon Enhancement Control 1 Tec1 is a positive regulator of chronological lifespan. Absence of TEC1 causes a significant shortened chronological lifespan, but does not block chronological lifespan extension by rapamycin. TEC(AxY) mutation also reduces chronological lifespan, although not so pronounced as strains lacking TEC1. Rapamycin-induced chronological lifespan extension is almost completely blocked by TEC(AxY) allele [21840851]. Budding yeast
    TAE2 Translation Associated Element 2 TAE2 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the a strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    SRS2 DNA helicase and DNA-dependent ATPase involved in DNA repair, needed for proper timing of commitment to meiotic recombination and transition from Meiosis I to II; affects genome stability by suppressing unscheduled homologous recombination SRS2 deletion mutants have a shortened mean replicative lifespan (by 50%) similar to sgs1 mutants [11290710]. Overexpression of SGS1 increases maximum, but not mean lifespan of SRS2 mutants [11861900]. Deletion of SRS2 is synthetical lethal in combination with deletion of SGS1 [11290710]. Budding yeast
    SOD2 SuperOxide Dismutase 2 SOD2 deletion decreases replicative lifespan by 72% [17460215]. SOD2 deletion decreases chronological lifespan [21076178]. Deletion of SOD2 decreases chronological lifespan in wild-type and abolishes chronological lifespan extension in sch9Delta mutants as well as decreases chronological lifespan in cyr1:mTn mutants [12586694]. Combined overexpression of SOD1 and SOD2 extends chronological lifespan by 30% in EG103 strain [12586694]. SOD2 deletion mutants are hypersensitive to oxygen and grow poorly in ethanol [10222047]. Budding yeast
    RPO41 RNA POlymerase 41 RPO41 mutants exhibit reduced chronological lifespan accompanied by imbalanced mitochondrial translation, conditional inactivation of respiration, elevated production of reactive oxygen species, and increased oxidative stress [16782871]. Budding yeast
    RIM15 Regulator of IME2 15 RIM15 deletion results in 50% reduction of maximal chronological lifespan [11292860] and consistently decreases chronological lifespan under AL [21076178]. Rim15 is required for chronological lifespan extension caused by deficiency in RAS2, TOR1, or SCH9, as well as by 0.5% glucose restriction, but not by water starvation [18225956]. Budding yeast
    RAD51 RADiation sensitive 51 Rad51 mutations result in a 40% reduced mean replicative lifespan in strain PSY316 [10207108]. RAD51 is required for gene conversion, but not for repair of an HO-induced double-stranded break [8692957]. RAD51 deletion decreases formation of extrachromosomal rDNA circles [10207108]. Budding yeast
    RAD50 RADiation sensitive 50 RAD50 mutations result in a 70% reduced replicative lifespan [10207108]. Budding yeast
    PHB2 Subunit of the prohibitin complex (Phb1p-Phb2p), a 1.2 MDa ring-shaped inner mitochondrial membrane chaperone that stabilizes newly synthesized proteins; determinant of replicative life span; involved in mitochondrial segregation PHB2 deletion leads to a slight reduction in both mean and maximum replicative lifespan, and when both PHB1 and PHB2 genes are deleted, the mean replicative lifespan is reduced by 40% [9259555]. Deletion of PHB2 decreases replicative lifespan by 30% [12882345]. Phenotypic changes characteristic of aging cells (e.g. lengthening of cell cycle and specific morphological changes) suggests that PHB1;PHB2 double mutants undergo premature aging, not simply reduction of viability [9259555]. PHB2 mutants exhibit no reduction in stress resistance or bulk growth rate. PHB1;PHB2 double mutant have a strong defect in mitochondrial potential [9259555]. Prohibitin-dependent mutation pbd1 and pdb2 behave in a different manner and probaly affect different aspects of prohibitin function. pdb1 mutants slightly extended lifespan by 11%, whereas in contrast, the pdb2 mutation results in a shortening in both the mean- and the maximum-lifespan (by 28 and 17%, respectively). pdb1 mutation also reduces chronological lifespan. Reducing the expression of the PHB2 in the pbd mutants retards the rate of growth and affects replicative lifespan [16710639]. Budding yeast
    VPH2 Vacuolar pH 2 Overexpression of VPH2 increases the levels of assembled V-ATPase at the vacuolar membrane, increases vacuolar acidity and suppresses age-induced mitochondrial dysfunction of aged cells (17 or 18 cell divisions) which requires the V-ATPase activity. VPH2 overexpression significantly increases mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 23, 25 and 34%, respectively [23172144]. Budding yeast
    VMA1 Vacuolar Membrane Atpase 1 Overexpression of VMA1 increases vacuolar acidity and suppresses age-induced mitochondrial dysfunction of aged cells (17 or 18 cell divisions) which requires the V-ATPase activity. VMA1 overexpression significantly increases mean, median and maximum lifespan by 39 - 45%, 39 - 48% and 50 - 60%, respectively. DR (0.5% glucose restriction) does not further increase the lifespan of VMA1 overexpression strain [23172144]. Budding yeast
    PEP4 carboxyPEPtidase Y-deficient 4 Overexpression of vacuolar aspartyl protease (PEP4) extends chronological lifespan by increasing cytosolic polyamine and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) levels. Deletion of PEP4 results in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death during chronological aging [21593793]. PEP4 is not DR-essential [18690010]. Budding yeast
    SSD1 Suppressor of SIT4 Deletion 1 Overexpression of SSD1 (addition of a SSD1-V allele) increases replicative lifespan by 50%, independently of SIR2 and SIR2 further extends the lifespan, although SIR2 is necessary for SSD1-V cells to attain maximal lifespan [15126388]. SSD1-V also dramatically increases chronological lifespan with lifespan twice as long as ssd1-d cells [19570907]. Deletion of SSD1 increases replicative lifespan by 50% [Li et al., 2009]. Addition of SSD1-V allele to an ssd1-d strain suppresses the short lifespan of an MPT5 deletion mutant [11805047] and extend wild-type lifespan [Kaeberlein and Guarente, unpublished]. SSD1-V slightly extends the lifespan of swi4 and ccr4 mutant strains and suppresses the temperature sensitive growth phenotype of mpt5, ccr3, swi4, and swi6 single mutants [11805047]. SSD1-V also suppresses the synthetic lethality caused by deletion of MPT5 in combination with a mutation in SWI4, SWI6, or CCR4 [11805047]. SSD1-V suppresses mutations that affect cell wall stability [1545797; 8386319], RNA polymerase III activity [8510644], RNA splicing [10446233], and PKA activity [1848673; 8200529]. Budding yeast
