OSH6 overexpression

Species: Budding yeast (Taxid: 4932)
Factor: OSH6
Manipulation: Gain-of-Function, Overexpression
Effect:

Elevation of OSH6 levels by an ERG6 promoter extends mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 39, 52 and 18% which is non-additive with 0.5% glucose restriction. It also extends the lifespan of NYV1 mutant [Geber et al., unpublished].

The long lifespan of Perg6-OSH6 is not further extended by deletion of TOR1 [22622083].

OSH6 overexpression decreases total cellular sterol content and reduces Lst8 protein levels. The CC domain of Osh6 is dispensable for longevity [Fusheng Tang, personal communication].

Mean: +39
Median: +52
Maximum: +18
