Saccharomyces cerevisiae GenDR Dietary Restriction Gene Manipulation: VPS8

Gene Information (Entrez Gene ID: 851261)

Symbol
VPS8
Aliases
FUN15 VPL8 VPT8
Name
Vacuolar Protein Sorting 8
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (AnAge)
Entrez Gene ID
851261

Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

Lack of VPS8 reduces lifespan under starvation conditions to a level similar to that of wild-type cells incubated in synthetic complete medium and therefore blocked the lifespan-extending effect of DR [2500].
