Computational genomic analyses of long-lived mammals to study variation in cancer resistance, longevity and life history

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Little is known about the genetic and molecular mechanisms responsible for the great differences in mammalian longevity and life history. One potential source of novel insights is based on comparative analyses of the genomes of species which exhibit extreme longevity and an extended life history. As such, this work describes the results obtained from the analysis of the bowhead whale, naked mole rat (NMR) and huma...
