Many of the lifespan-related genes have been identified in eukaryotes ranging from the yeast to human. However, there is limited information available on the longevity genes that are essential for cell proliferation. Here, we investigated whether the essential genes encoding DNA-binding transcription factors modulated the replicative lifespan ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. Heterozygous diploid knockout strains forFHL1, RAP1,REB1, andMCM1genes showed significantly short lifespan.1H-nuclear magnetic resonance analysis indicated a characteristic metabolic profile in the Δfhl1/FHL1mutant. These results strongly suggest thatFHL1regulates the transcription of lifespan related metabolic genes. Thus, heterozygous knockout strains could be the potential materials for discovering further novel lifespan genes.
