Comparative analysis of mammal genomes unveils key genomic variability for human lifespan
2021-02-10
Abstract excerpt
Mammals vary 100-fold in their maximum lifespan. This enormous variation is the result of the adaptations of each species to their own biological trade-offs and ecological conditions. Comparative genomics studies have demonstrated that the genomic factors underlying the lifespans of species and the longevity of individuals are shared across the tree of life. Here, we set out to compare protein-coding regions acros...
