Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing
- Observations
-
Cells with 5 copies of PNC1 have a 70% longer replicative lifespan which is cancelled out by SIR2 deletion. PNC1 is upregulated under glucose DR [2499]. Deletion of PNC1 shortens replicative lifespan approximately by 10% [2499] and largely prevents replicative lifespan extension of 0.5% glucose restriction. 0.5% glucose restriction slightly extends median replicative lifespan (by 10 - 15%) but not maximum replicative lifespan in pnc1Delta [2329]. Increased expression of PNC1 is both necessary and sufficient for replicative lifespan extension by DR and low-intensity stress. DR does not further increase the lifespan of the 5XPNC1 strain [2499].
