TOR1

DRR1, phosphatidylinositol kinase-related protein kinase TOR1, L000002322, YJR066W
PIK-related protein kinase and rapamycin target; subunit of TORC1, a complex that controls growth in response to nutrients by regulating translation, transcription, ribosome biogenesis, nutrient transport and autophagy; involved in meiosis; TOR1 has a paralog, TOR2, that arose from the whole genome duplication
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

Synthetic Rescue

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutations or deletions of one gene rescues the lethality or growth defect of a strain mutated or deleted for another gene.

Caloric restriction alleviates alpha-synuclein toxicity in aged yeast cells by controlling the opposite roles of Tor1 and Sir2 on autophagy.

Guedes A, Ludovico P, Sampaio-Marques B

Alpha-synuclein (syn) is the main component of proteinaceous inclusions known as Lewy bodies (LBs), which are implicated in the pathogenesis of the neurodegenerative diseases known as synucleinopathies, like Parkinson's disease (PD). Aging is a major risk factor for PD and thus, interventions that delay aging will have promising effects in PD and other synucleinopathies. Caloric restriction (CR) is the only ... [more]

Phenotypic Suppression
Phenotypic Suppression

A genetic interaction is inferred when mutation or over expression of one gene results in suppression of any phenotype (other than lethality/growth defect) associated with mutation or over expression of another gene.
