Abstract
Large differences in maximum longevity exist between different rodent species. Determination of the spontaneous and mutagen-induced mutation rates in these species by single (somatic) cell sequencing suggests more efficient DNA repair in long-lived species (including humans), but the data is too noisy to prove a strong correlation between longevity and preservation of DNA integrity.
