Daughters of the budding yeast from old mothers have shorter replicative lifespans but not total lifespans. Are DNA damage and rDNA instability the factors that determine longevity?

Summary

It is shown for the first time that daughter cells of an old mother have a reset lifespan expressed in units of time despite drastic reduction of their budding lifespan, which suggests that a single yeast cell has a fixed programmed longevity regardless of the time point at which it was originated.
