Age- or lifestyle-induced accumulation of genotoxicity is associated with a generalized shutdown of long gene transcription
2022-07-25
Abstract excerpt
A causative role for DNA damage as a molecular driver of aging has long been advocated. Transcription-blocking lesions (TBLs) accumulate with age in a stochastic manner. Thus, gene expression data might reflect the gene length-dependent accumulation of TBLs. Here we present an analysis of gene expression as a function of gene length in several independent single-cell RNA sequencing datasets of mouse and human agin...
