RTG2 is required for replicative lifespan extension associated with the retrograde response, a pathway that signals the functional status of mitochondria to the nucleus to regulate the expression of several genes [11024000]. RTG2 is not required for replicative lifespan extension by DR [11024000].
RTG2 null mutants are not petite [8422683], but display various nutrient auxotrphies and alterations of carbohydrate metabolism [7727418].
