Heat stress promotes longevity in budding yeast by relaxing the confinement of age-promoting factors in the mother cell

Although individuals of many species inexorably age, a number of observations established that the rate of aging is modulated in response to a variety of mild stresses. Here, we investigated how heat stress promotes longevity in yeast. We show that upon growth at higher temperature, yeast cells rela...
