Greenland Shark’s 400-year life tied to unique DNA repair mechanisms

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Sharks differ from one another, so there are no other examples within the kingdom. Only this shark. All the same, researchers intend to analyze the Greenland shark’s DNA further and compare it to other sharks and fish to continue to unravel this mystery.

Scientists are exploring ways to prolong human life.

“The goal is to have better DNA repair,” an expert told CNN, and scientists have to study all the animals with an unusually long lifespan to determine which ones would “more easily adapt to human use.”
