RTG3 deletion mutation causes an increase in mean replicative in lifespan by 55% increase at 2% glucose, suggesting that expression of genes regulated by Rtg1-Rtg3 has a negative effect on longevity in 2% glucose (in YPK9). A null mutant has 123% increased mean lifespan at 0.1% glucose relative to a wild-type strain at 2% glucose, indicating that reduced glucose and an RTG3 mutation have an additive effect on lifespan (in YPK9) [11024000].
RTG3 null mutant cannot grow on acetate medium and requires glutamate or aspartate for growth [9032238].
Mean: +55
