Molecular mechanisms of translational regulation in aging
Description: Project Narrative The major goal of this grant application is to examine the mechanistic basis of post-transcriptional gene regula- tion in aging using yeast as a model system. For this, we propose to quantitatively analyze transcriptional and translational changes in replicatively aged cells in response to dietary and genetic interventions known to extend lifespan. This information will be integrated to develop a regulatory interaction network and identify factors in- volved in translational regulation of aging genetic pathways.
