Ligi Paul, “Diet, Nutrition & Telomere Length”, 2011 was the topic of an earlier blog post.
Here I present: Ligi Paul, “Diet, Nutrition & Telomere Length”, PART TWO (II), 2011.
INTRODUCTION.
This is an extension of the previous blog post. The essence of this discussion is “Telomerase” which designated EC # 2.7.7.49. Senescence (deterioration of function with age) is controlled by “Telomerase” (TTAGGG)n repeats at the ends of the chromosomal DNA. Enzyme activity of “Telomerase” is modulated by metabolites (both foods & drugs).
Here I presented: Ligi Paul, “Diet, Nutrition & Telomere Length”, PART TWO (II), 2011.
CONCLUSION.
This designation of “Telomerase” as EC #2.7.7.49 can be found in databases listed BELOW (from enzyme.expasy.org). This problem of the metabolites of food limiting the somatic cell cycling in diet can be solved nutritionally.
