Synthetic condensate size correlates with yeast replicative cell age

Yeast divides asymmetrically, with an aging mother cell and a ‘rejuvenated’ daughter cell, and serves as a model organism for studying aging. At the same time, determining the age of yeast cells is technically challenging, requiring complex experimental setups or genetic strategies. We developed a s...

description Yeast divides asymmetrically, with an aging mother cell and a ‘rejuvenated’ daughter cell, and serves as a model organism for studying aging. At the same time, determining the age of yeast cells is technically challenging, requiring complex experimental setups or genetic strategies. We developed a synthetic system composed of two interacting oligomers, which forms condensates in living yeast cells. Here, we report that these synthetic condensates' size correlates with yeast replicative age, making these condensates age reporters for this model organism.
