We built a high-throughput, parallelized version of a magnetic enrichment device to culture and purify aged Saccharomyces cerevisiae using a biotin-streptavidin system. This platform enables scalable selection of old yeast cells, starting from a fob1Δ background known for its extended replicative lifespan.
We apply a genetic algorithm-inspired selection process to iteratively enrich for yeast lineages that live longer. Once long-lived colonies are isolated, we perform omics analyses to uncover the molecular mechanisms driving their longevity, with the goal of translating these findings to higher-order organisms. In parallel, we conduct genome-wide iterative deletion screens to identify combinatorial gene knockouts that extend lifespan, further revealing genetic determinants of aging.
