Description

The abstract notes that knockout/downregulation of different PIN7 proteins (TPPII, p53, SIRT6, SIRT7, MYBBP1A) produces similar aging phenotypes, but the mechanistic basis for this convergent phenotype is not explained. Understanding this could reveal key aging pathways and therapeutic targets.
