Schizosaccharomyces pombe GenDR Dietary Restriction Gene Manipulation: atf1

Gene Information (Entrez Gene ID: 2540329)

Symbol
atf1
Aliases
gad7 mts1 sss1
Name
activating transcription factor 1
Organism
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (AnAge)

Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

Activation of transcription factor Atf1 by Sty1 is required for chronological lifespan extension and enhanced heat stress resistance by DR. Deleting atf1 cancels out DR-mediated chronological lifespan extension and enhanced heat stress resistance. Overexpressing atf1 is not sufficient to promote chronological lifespan extension in cells lacking sty1 [2563].
