Respiratory deficient petite cells in YPK9 strain have a replicative lifespan that is extended by 39%. This lifespan extension is strain-specific as Petite cells in W303 have lifespan identical to grande cells and petite cels in strains SP1-1 and A364A have a shorter lifespan than grande cells [10224252].
Respiratory defective petite cells display defective mitochondria and are unable to grow on glycerol.
Mean: +39
