Article Synopsis
  • - The yeast ribosome consists of two subunits (60S and 40S) and contains 78 ribosomal proteins, with many encoded by duplicate genes.
  • - Deleting specific ribosomal protein genes (like RPL31A, RPL6B, and RPS6B) significantly increased yeast replicative life span, with some deletions extending lifespan by up to 45%.
  • - Manipulating the gene dosage of ribosomal proteins impacted ribosome levels and growth rate, suggesting that these changes in translation regulation may play a role in the aging process of yeast.
