Z_2_09 — Mitochondrial Genetics and Diseases

Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a 16,569-bp circular genome encoding 37 genes: 13 proteins (all subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation/OXPHOS complexes I, III, IV, and V), 22 transfer RNAs, and 2 ribosomal RNAs. Un

Z_2_02 — Telomere Biology & Genetics of Aging

Telomeres — repetitive DNA sequences (TTAGGG)ₙ capping the ends of linear chromosomes — serve as protective buffers against chromosome degradation, end-to-end fusion, and the progressive DNA loss inherent in the end-repl

Z_1_13 — DNA Repair Mechanisms and Genome Stability

Every human cell sustains an estimated 10,000–100,000 DNA lesions per day from endogenous sources alone — oxidative metabolism, spontaneous hydrolysis, replication errors, and reactive metabolites — while environmental m

R_3_14 — Evolution of Aging and Senescence

Aging — the progressive decline in physiological function and increase in mortality rate with time — is one of evolution's deepest puzzles: why would natural selection, which optimizes fitness, permit organisms to deteri

R_1_09 — The Great Oxidation Event: Oxygen, Cyanobacteria, and Earth's Atmospheric Transformation

The Great Oxidation Event (GOE), occurring approximately 2.4–2.1 billion years ago during the Paleoproterozoic, was the most dramatic chemical transformation in Earth's history — atmospheric oxygen rose from trace levels
