Overexpression of HAP4 from the ADH1 promoter extends lifespan of PSY316 strain approximately 40% under growth conditions favoring fermentation (2% glucose). Overexpression of HAP4 increases replicative lifespan, but is non-additive with 0.5% glucose restriction in lifespan extension. Lifespan extension by HAP4 overexpression requires SIR2 [12124627]. HAP4 deletion suppresses replicative lifespan extension to 30% and 33% on 0.1% glucose and on elimination of non-essential amino acids, respectively [20178842]. HAP4 overexpressing cells demonstrate a transcriptional response resembling cells undergoing diauxic shift, consume more oxygen, and exhibit increased Sir2-dependent transcriptional silencing at telomeres and rDNA [12124627].
