Phylogenetic screening has been used successfully to isolate retroelements that have been active in recent evolutionary time. In a phi-screen of the white-footed mouse, Peromyscus leucopus, the retrovirus-like element mys was identified by virtue of its hybridization to Peromyscus DNA but its lack of hybridization to Mus (the outgroup) DNA.13 In a phi-screen of human DNA using Galago as an outgroup, both the 5 end of the LI element and the retrovirus-like element THE 1 hybridized differentially,... 

In the housefly, the protein carbonyl content rather than chronological age was found to be associated with life expectancy. Exposure of flies to sublethal hy-peroxia (100% oxygen) irreversibly enhanced the carbonyl content of the flies and decreased their rate of oxygen consumption. Results of this study were suggested to indicate that protein carbonyl content may be a biomarker of aging (S40, S52, Y6). The average life-span potential of several insect species is inversely correlated with the level of protein carbonylation (S43). The white-footed mouse (.Peromyscus leucopus) has more than a twice as long a life span as the house mouse (Mus musculus), and tissues of the white-footed mouse also have lower levels of...
