HSP104 overexpression

Species: Budding yeast (Taxid: 4932)
Factor: HSP104
Manipulation: Gain-of-Function, Overexpression
Effect:

Overexpression of HSP104 driven by GAL promoter is insufficient to extend replicative lifespan [9851879]. Overproduction of HSP104 in wild-type cells has no effect on replicative life span, but suppresses the reduced lifespan of Sir2-deficient cells [17908928]. HSP104 overproduction is sufficient to induce thermotolerance [8643570].
