Aging in wild and laboratory yeast: nutrient sensing, telomeres, and the nucleolus.
(2012-09-13)Aging and longevity are considered to be highly complex genetic traits. In order to gain insight into aging as a polygenic trait, we employed an outbred <italic>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</italic> model, generated by crossing ... -
Characterization of organelle morphology and DNA repair in replicatively aging yeast
(2013-11-14)Aging is one of the most ubiquitous processes in biology, and yet, how the aging process is initiated and the mechanisms that govern how an organism ages remain largely unknown. The study of human aging has been impeded ... -
An Exploration of the Genetics and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Conserved Longevity Interventions
(2012-09-13)Aging is a degenerative process that causes a time-dependent deterioration of virtually every biological system in the majority of species. Age is the primary risk factor for many human diseases, including the top causes ... -
Methods in Continuous Culture: Mutation Accumulation, Evolution, and Aging
There are many ways to culture a single celled organism, each way uniquely capable of answering a different biological question. Continuous culture, a form of growing organisms in which fresh medium is continually added ...
