Saccharomyces cerevisiae GenDR Dietary Restriction Gene Manipulation: TOR1

Gene Information (Entrez Gene ID: 853529)

Symbol
TOR1
Aliases
DRR1
Name
Target Of Rapamycin 1
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (AnAge)
Entrez Gene ID
853529

Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

TOR1 deletion extends mean and maximum replicative lifespan by 21 and 25% [1570] as well as chronological lifespan [2591]. This lifespan extension is independent of SIR2 [1570]. Deletion of TOR1 extends replicative lifespan as well as chronological lifespan [2591] and glucose restriction fails to further extend the long replicative lifespan of tor1Delta [1570] [2238] [2556]. Water starvation (extreme DR) further extends chronological lifespan of tor1 mutants [2556].
