Extension of the Drosophila Lifespan by Overexpression of a Protein Repair Methyltransferase

Atypical protein isoaspartyl residues arise spontaneously during the aging process from the deamidation of protein asparaginyl residues and the isomerization of protein aspartyl residues. These abnormal residues are modified in cells by a strongly conserved protein carboxyl methyltransferase (PCMT)...
