Abstract excerpt
Alterations in metabolic pathways are gaining attention as important environmental factors affecting life span, but the determination of specific metabolic pathways and enzymes involved in life span remains largely unexplored. By applying an NMR-based metabolomics approach to a calorie-restricted yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) model, we found that alanine level is inversely correlated with yeast chronological...
