Further, we compare a set of almost 1,000 #genes related to aging and #DNA #repair between both Turritopsis and other cnidarians and present a stage-specific transcriptome of #life cycle reversal process of T. dohrnii. Altogether, these results unveil key molecular mechanisms behind rejuvenation of T. dohrnii.
