Researchers have determined that chromosome tips, known as telomeres, which regulate the lifespan of cells by preventing their genetic code from fraying, are shorter than expected in Dolly. Researchers are not sure whether the "older DNA" is the result of the age of the animal from which Dolly was cloned or the result...
