摘要
PaMTH1, a putative methyltransferase previously described to increase in abundance in total protein extracts during aging of Podospora anserina is demonstrated to accumulate in the mitochondrial cell fraction of senescent cultures. The protein is localized in the mitochondrial matrix and displays a methyltransferase activity utilizing flavonoids as substrates. Constitutive over-expression of PaMth1 in P. anserina results in a reduced carbonylation of proteins and an extended lifespan without impairing vital functions suggesting a protecting role of PaMTH1 against oxidative stress.
