Abstract: Mitochondrial retrograde signaling is a communication pathway between the mitochondrion and the nucleus which regulates the expression of a subset of nuclear genes that codify mitochondrial proteins, mediating cell response to mitochondrial dysfunction. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the pathway depends on Rtg1p and Rtg3p, which together form the transcription factor that regulates gene expression, and Rtg2p, an activator of the pathway. Here, we provide novel studies aimed at assessing the functional impact of the lack of RTG-dependent signaling on mitochondrial activity. We show that mutants defective in RTG dependent retrograde signaling present higher oxygen consumption and reduced hydrogen peroxide release in the stationary phase when compared to wild type cells. Interestingly, RTG mutants are less able to decompose hydrogen peroxide as well as maintain viability when challenged with hydrogen peroxide. Overall, our results indicate that RTG signaling is involved in the hormetic induction of antioxidant defenses and stress resistance. β’ Keywords: Retrograde signaling, Hormesis, Mitochondria, H2O2, Safranin, Amplex Red
