AVT1 | Amino acid Vacuolar Transport 1 | Overexpressing or deleting AVT1 is sufficient to extend or shorten replicative lifespan, respectively [23172144].
Overexpression of AVT1 prevents mitochondrial dysfunction, prevents alterations in mitochondrial structure and ΔΨ of aged cells even through the vacuolar acidity is reduced in these cells. AVT1 overexpression extends the mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 28, 28, and 22%, respectively [23172144].
Deletion of AVT1 accelerates the development of age-induced mitochondrial dysfunction without effecting the kinetics of vacuolar acidity decline and prevents the suppression of mitochondrial dysfunction by VMA1 and VPH2 overexpression without affecting vacuolar acidity. AVT1 deletion decreases mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 21, 22, and 12%, respectively [23172144]. | Budding yeast |
AKR1 | AnKyrin Repeat-containing protein 1 | Deletion of AKR1 decreases replicative lifespan by 40% in the alpha strain [18340043]. Replicative lifespan decreased by 50% in the alpha strain [19030232]. | Budding yeast |
ATP1 | ATP synthase 1 | Deletion of ATP1 increases chronological lifespan by up to 50% [17492370], but decreases replicative lifespan by 70% in the alpha strain [18340043]. | Budding yeast |
ATP2 | ATP synthase F1 subunit gamma | A temperature sensitive allele of ATP2 causes a clonal senescence phenotype resulting from the disruption of the age asymmetry between mother and daughter cells in that that daughter cells are born as old as they mother cells at 36 degree Celsius. This mutation of valine to isoleucine at amino acid 90 does not affect growth on non-fermentable carbon source. This allele is associated with loss of mitochondrial membrane potential as well as failure to segregate functional mitochondria to daughter cells [12242224]. | Budding yeast |
AFG3 | ATPase Family Gene 3 | Deletion of the mitochondrial AAA protease AFG3 increases replicative lifespan by 20% in the alpha and a strains [18340043], but decreases chronological lifespan by 37 - 51% in diploid cells [21447998].
AFG3 deletion changes mean, median and maximum lifespan by 15 to 26% 17 to 30% and -25 to +58%, respectively.
AFG3 deletion leads to reduced cytoplasmic mRNA translation and its lifespan extension is independent of Sir2 and Hac1, but requires Gcn4. AFG3 deletion further extends the lifespan of cell deficient in both SIR2 and FOB1, but fails to extend the lifespan of dietary restricted cells or cells lacking GCN4. Gcn4 protein levels are increased in afg3 mutants. The deletion of AFG3 fails to extend the replicative lifespan in the W303AR strain. AFG3 deletion does deletion extend the replicative lifespan at 15°C. | Budding yeast |
ATG1 | AuTophaGy related 11 | ATG1 deletion reduces chronological lifespan by 70% [19302372]. Deletion of ATG1 reduces replicative lifespan by 20% in the alpha strain [18340043]. | Budding yeast |
ATG16 | AuTophaGy related 16 | Under AL atg16 mutation shortens chronological, but not replicative lifespan. 0.5% glucose DR extends chronological lifespan of atg16 mutants, but amino-acid DR does not extend the short chronological lifespan of atg16 mutants (similar to several other autophagy mutants). ADE4 deletion in atg16 mutants results only in a partial extension of chronological lifespan by 0.5% glucose DR. The long chronological lifespan of tor1 mutants requires ATG16 [20421943]. | Budding yeast |
ATG17 | AuTophaGy related 17 | ATG17 deletion decreases replicative lifespan under AL and blocks DR-lifespan extension. ATG17 mutant's replicative lifespan decreases by 70% on DR [18690010]. | Budding yeast |
ATG7 | Autophagy-related protein and dual specificity member of the E1 family of ubiquitin-activating enzymes; mediates the conjugation of Atg12p with Atg5p and Atg8p with phosphatidylethanolamine, required steps in autophagosome formation | ATG7 deletion reduces chronological lifespan by 70% [19302372]. | Budding yeast |
BCY1 | Bypass of CYclase mutations | Disruption in BCY1 by mutation results decreases mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 37 and 16% and is associated with increased PKA activity [8195187]. | Budding yeast |
CCR4 | Carbon Catabolite Repression 4 | Deletion of CCR4 increases mean chronological lifespan by 20 - 41% (20, 33, 41) in diploid cells [21447998]. In W303R CCR4 deletion shortens replicative lifespan by approximately 80% and results in temperature sensitivity that is suppressed by SSD1-V. SSD1-V partially suppresses the short-lifespan of ccr4 mutant. CCR4 mutation is synthetically lethal in combination with deletion of MPT5 in the absence of SSD1-V [11805047]. | Budding yeast |
CAT5 | CATabolite repression 5 | Deletion of CAT5 decreases chronological lifespan by up to 50% [17492370] and also decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain [18340043]. | Budding yeast |
CDC7 | Cell Division Cycle 7 | Transient inactivation of CDC7 results in a shortened replicative lifespan [2698814]. CDC7 participates in silencing and RAS2 modulates its activity [1990268]. | Budding yeast |
WSC4 | cell Wall integrity and Stress response Component 4 | Deletion of WSC4 decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the alpha strain [18340043]. | Budding yeast |
CTF4 | Chromatin-associated protein, required for sister chromatid cohesion; interacts with DNA polymerase alpha (Pol1p) and may link DNA synthesis to sister chromatid cohesion | Deletion of CTF4 results in an approximately 75% reduced mean replicative lifespan [12024027]. | Budding yeast |
CHL1 | CHromosome Loss 1 | CHL1 deletion mutant exhibits a shortened mean and maximum lifespan by 36 and 29%, respectively, as well as hypersensitivity to heat stress. CHL1 may modulate transcriptional silencing in the presence of Sir proteins [16182251]. | Budding yeast |
CLA4 | CLn Activity dependant 4 | Deletion of CLA4 decreases replicative lifespan by 60% in the alpha strain [18340043; 19030232]. | Budding yeast |
COQ3 | COenzyme Q 3 | Deletion of COQ3 decreases chronological lifespan and renders cells respiratory deficient and sensitive to hydrogen peroxide [12586694]. | Budding yeast |
CCS1 | Copper Chaperone for SOD1 1 | Deletion of CCS1 reduces replicative lifespan by 50% [17460215]. | Budding yeast |
DIF1 | Damage-regulated Import Facilitator 1 | Deletion of DIF1 decreases replicative lifespan by 20% in the alpha strain [19030232]. | Budding yeast |
DAP2 | Dipeptidyl AminoPeptidase 2 | DAP2 deletion decreases mean and maximum replicative lifespan under AL by 19 and 36%, respectively, and cancels out the lifespan extending effect of moderate DR [22912585]. | Budding yeast |
SRS2 | DNA helicase and DNA-dependent ATPase involved in DNA repair, needed for proper timing of commitment to meiotic recombination and transition from Meiosis I to II; affects genome stability by suppressing unscheduled homologous recombination | SRS2 deletion mutants have a shortened mean replicative lifespan (by 50%) similar to sgs1 mutants [11290710]. Overexpression of SGS1 increases maximum, but not mean lifespan of SRS2 mutants [11861900]. Deletion of SRS2 is synthetical lethal in combination with deletion of SGS1 [11290710].

DNA2 | DNA synthesis defective 2 | Mutants in DNA2 exhibit an accelerated ageing phenotype including extended cell cycle time, age-related transcriptional silencing defects, and nucleolar reorganization, which are all phenotypes of old wild-type cells. Lifespan of DNA2 mutants is extended by expression of an additional copy of SIR2 or by deletion of FOB1 and therefore the lifespan shortening partially suppressed. Three different alleles of DNA2 (dna2-1, dna2-2, and dna2-20) result in a significant shortened lifespan up to 85%. DNA2 mutation shorten the already short lifespan of SGS1 mutants [12024027]. | Budding yeast |
ERG3 | ERGosterol biosynthesis | Deletion of ERG3 decreases replicative lifespan under AL, cancels out replicative lifespan extension of 0.5% glucose DR and results under DR also into a shorter replicative lifespan than under AL [18690010]. | Budding yeast |
ERG5 | ERGosterol biosynthesis 5 | Deletion of ERG5 decreases replicative lifespan by 35% in the a strain [18340043], but increases mean chronological lifespan by 26 - 116% (26, 40, 43, 62, 116) in diploid cells [21447998]. Deletion of ERG5 cancels out the replicative lifespan extension of 0.5% glucose restriction [18690010]. | Budding yeast |
