Abstract
-
Silent information regulator 2 (Sir2), which is the founding
member of the sirtuin family of proteins, is a pro-longevity
factor for replicative lifespan (RLS) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Sir2 is required for transcriptional silencing at mating
type loci, telomeres, and rDNA loci. Sir2 also represses transcription
of highly expressed growth-related genes, such as
PMA1 and some ribosomal protein genes. Although the Sir2
paralogues Hst1, Hst2, Hst3, and Hst4 occur in S. cerevisiae,
none of them could replace the transcriptional regulation of
PMA1 by Sir2 in the wild type. In this study, we demonstrate
that Hst1, the closest Sir2 paralogue, deacetylates the acetylated
lysine 16 of histone H4 (H4K16Ac) and represses PMA1
transcription in the sir2Δ pde2Δ mutant. We further show
that Hst1 plays a role in extending the RLS of the sir2Δ pde2Δ
mutant. Collectively, our results suggest that Hst1 can substitute
for Sir2 by deacetylating H4K16Ac only in the sir2Δ
pde2Δ.

Abstract
-
Silent Information Regulator 2 (Sir2), a conserved NAD+- dependent histone deacetylase, has been implicated as one of the key factors in regulating stress response and longevity. Here, we report that the role of Sir2 in oxidative stress
resistance and chronological lifespan is dependent on growth phase in yeast. In exponential phase, sir2Δ cells were more resistant to H2O2 stress and had a longer chronological lifespan than wild type. By contrast, in post-diauxic phase, sir2Δ
cells were less resistant to H2O2 stress and had a shorter chronological lifespan than wild type cells. Similarly, the expression of antioxidant genes, which are essential to cope with oxidative stress, was regulated by Sir2 in a growth phasedependent manner. Collectively, our findings highlight the importance of the metabolic state of the cell in determining whether Sir2 can protect against or accelerate cellular aging of yeast.
