Abstract

The repair of the damage produced to the genome and proteome by the action of ionizing radiation, oxidizing agents, and during aging is important to maintain cellular homeostasis. Many of the metabolic pathways influence multiple processes. In this way, this work aims to study the relationship between resistance/response to ionizing radiation, cellular aging, and the response mechanisms to oxidative stress, free radicals, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and antioxidant activity in the yeast S. cerevisiae. Systems biology allows us to use tools that reveal the molecular mechanisms common to different cellular response phenomena. The results found indicate that homologous recombination, non-homologous end joining, and base excision repair pathways are the most important common processes necessary to maintain cellular homeostasis. The metabolic routes of longevity regulation are those that jointly contribute to the three phenomena studied. This study proposes eleven common biomarkers for response/resistance to ionizing radiation and aging (EXO1, MEC1, MRE11, RAD27, RAD50, RAD51, RAD52, RAD55, RAD9, SGS1, YKU70) and two biomarkers for response/resistance to radiation and oxidative stress, free radicals, ROS, and antioxidant activity (NTG1, OGG1). In addition, it is important to highlight that the HSP104 protein could be a good biomarker common to the three phenomena studied.
