It has been thought that the ageing process occurs because damage accumulates in the DNA and prevents the cells from producing the proteins they need for their normal operation, but the University of Oslo researchers said this might not actually be the case.
One of the genes studied by the researchers has a somewhat shortened lifespan: on average, this mutant gene lived three days less than usual. Translated into human terms, this would mean dy
