Methylation-Based Age Estimation in a Wild Mouse

2020-07-16

Abstract excerpt

The age structure of populations, or the ageing rate of individuals, impacts aspects of ecology, epidemiology and conservation. Yet for many wild organisms, age is an inaccessible trait. In many cases measuring age or ageing rates in the wild requires molecular biomarkers of age. Epigenetic clocks based on DNA methylation have been shown to accurately estimate the age of humans and laboratory mice, but they also s...
