GPA2

Symbol: GPA2
Name: G Protein Alpha subunit 2
Alias: SSP101
Entrez gene ID: 856741
Ensembl gene ID: YER020W
Species: Yeast (Taxid: 4932)

Functional description:
Gpa2p; Nucleotide binding alpha subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein that interacts with the receptor Gpr1p, has signaling role in response to nutrients; green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the cell periphery [Source:SGD;Acc:S000000822] [Ensembl]

Observation:

Deletion of GPA2 increases mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 40% and 26%, respectively [11000115]. Deletion of GPA2 extends replicative lifespan by reducing cAMP-PKA activity and provides a genetic model for DR [11000115].
