Alargar los telómeros era una parte fundamental de todo aquello, pero aún había que hacer más: cada copia de ADN tenía que ser comprobada en busca de errores que se hubieran colado durante las copias previas y, cuando se encontraban (y había miles de millones de esos errores en un ser humano mayor) tenían que ser reparados reescribiendo las cadenas nucleótido a nucleótido, un proceso complejo y delicado con células vivas.
Lengthening the telomeres was a key part of it, but so much more had to be done: each DNA copy had to be checked for errors that had intruded during previous copying, and when they were found — and there were billions of such errors in an elderly human — they had to be fixed by rewriting the strands nucleotide by nucleotide, a delicate and complex process to perform within living cells.
