Perhaps this is why extra copies of SIRT6, a sirtuin gene that suppresses retrotransposons, makes mice live longer
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

and that's why when you put in more copies of the gene for so2 and yeast and cert one and six in mice the organisms have better DNA repair and I they live longer
and that's why when you put in more copies of the gene for so2 and yeast and cert one and six in mice the organisms have better DNA repair and I they live longer
and that's why when you put in more copies of the gene for so two and yeast and cert one and cert six in mice the organisms have better dna repair and they they live longer so they're more able to do their things
and the more active they are the faster they can carry out these functions without getting distracted and that's why when you put in more copies of the gene for so two and yeast and cert one and certain six in mice the organisms have better dna repair uh and they they live longer
it's not just one of these genes that's important it's the whole family and that if you knock out take these for example if you knock outs or two in yeast you lose the ability to respond to some mild calorie switch but if you really calories tricked them they'll still live longer and there was a big debate actually between Brian Matt myself about that and where we settled on was that these other two related genes we're also helping and they work as a family and if you knock one out the others can come
