Gene Expression in Late-Life
Science proceeds from its mistakes, just as well as its successes. We have argued above that it is “perfectly reasonable for natural selection to produce late-life plateaus in life-history characters.” This is premised on the forces of natural selection having fallen to very low values. The reality of latelife mortality plateaus was a revelation for me, especially having been one of the earlies...
متن کاملLife history shapes gene expression in salmonids
Within species, individuals differ by gene expression, which may translate into remarkable phenotypic differences. Between species, gene expression levels change linearly over evolutionary time due to stochastic processes [1,2], while intraspecific evolution of transcriptional variation seems to be dominated by stabilizing selection [3]. We show that global gene expression levels within juvenil...
متن کاملRegulation of bacteriophage P2 late-gene expression: the ogr gene.
The ogr gene product of bacteriophage P2 is a positive regulatory factor required for P2 late-gene transcription. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the ogr gene, which encodes a basic polypeptide of 72 amino acids. P2 growth is blocked by a host mutation, rpoA109, in the alpha subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The ogr52 mutation, which allows P2 to grow in an rpoA109 strain, ...
متن کاملDepression in late life
Despite its prevalence and seriousness, depression in late life remains underappreciated as a source of disability and suffering for older people and their families. Despite a solid and substantial body of research, recognition of depression remains problematic and is often attributed to normal developmental changes in aging. Treatment efficacy data notwithstanding, the adequacy and appropriate...
متن کاملMania in late life
Mania in late life is a serious disorder that demands specialist assessment and management. However, it is greatly under-researched, with only a paucity of studies specifically analysing older populations. The mainstay of the old age psychiatry workload will inevitably be concerned with assessing and managing dementia and depression, but the steady rise in the aging population with longer survi...
