Conserved Pbp1/Ataxin-2 regulates retrotransposon activity and connects polyglutamine expansion-driven protein aggregation to lifespan-controlling rDNA repeats

Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeat instability and protein aggregation are thought to be two major and independent drivers of cellular aging. Pbp1, the yeast ortholog of human ATXN2, maintains rDNA repeat stability and lifespan via suppression of RNA–DNA hybrids. ATXN2 polyglutamine expansion drives neurod...
