- Jumping genes common in mammals may have invaded mammals via ancient horizontal gene transfer events and may have strongly contributed to mammalian evolution. The study looked at the genomes of 759 species and found that the common L1 transposable element also horizontally transferred. https://genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13059-018-1456-7 5 comments science

- Scientist finds a mouse epigenetic clock, based on changes in DNA methylation at 329 sites in the genome, that is predictive of age in the mouse with an accuracy of +/- 3.3 weeks. Lifestyle interventions known to shorten lifespan, such as a high fat diet, sped up the clock. https://genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13059-017-1203-5 33 comments science
