Lifespan is a life-history trait that undergoes natural selection. Telomeres are hallmarks of aging, and shortening rate predicts species lifespan, making telomere maintenance mechanisms throughout different lifespans worthy topic for study. Alligators suitable the exploration anti-aging molecular mechanisms, because they exhibit low or even negligible mortality in adults no significant shortening. Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) expression absent adult Alligator sinensis, as humans....
