Found, Genes That Can Make Your Longevity
Kamis, 26 November 2009

Research shows that parents who studied 86 children with them, have an enzyme called telomerase with a very high level. This enzyme functions to protect the DNA in the body. They are aged over 90 years and his descendants generally have higher telomerase and make them significantly more longevity. Telomerase is known to the special section of DNA that sit at the end of the chromosome, like a plastic sheath at the end of shoelaces to prevent loose fibers woven rope. Every time a cell divides, the telomerase will shorten and become more vulnerable to death. By raising the level of telomerase, the researchers think they can quickly block cell death and fight the aging process.
