New Tardigrade Species Hypsibius henanensis Reveals Unique Radiation Survival Mechanisms
Chinese biologists have discovered how a newly found tardigrade species, Hypsibius henanensis, can endure extreme radiation levels. Researchers identified three unique mechanisms that support this resilience: a TRID1 protein enabling DNA repair, mitochondrial proteins that enhance cellular defense, and high antioxidant production. This discovery en...
