A contribution of budding yeast to unravel aging. Entry into quiescence relies on the transceptor Mtl1 by sensing nutrients and regulation of signaling pathways 

Sundaram, Venkatraghavan (Date of defense: 2015-01-10)

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a premier model system to study ageing in post mitotic cells. In this study, we show that Mtl1, member of the Cell Wall Integrity pathway (CWI), plays a positive role in Chronological Life ...
