A few comments from AG...Portland Mercury..a weekly newspaper. "Telomere Repair are from long beach, but they sound neither - in any way, shape, or form - like snoop or sublime. They also DONT sound southern californian, beachy, O.C-ready, friendly, tan, healthy... anything the LBC is oft associated with. Rather their newish six-song EP is GREASY, Stormy, and full of Bruised Egos, Frayed Nerves, and tricks divined from old gravity record releases and black flag b-sides." AG. Portland Mercury. thanks AG. David Vaughn once wrote "Human cells without ACTIVE telomerase lose their ability to divide after a certain number of cells divisions. So telomerase might influence cellular senescence. Why do we need Telomerase? Chromosome ends in each eukarotic cell the genotype is stored in chromosomes, whose end structures are called telomeres. Whereas the telomeres of embryonic cells are long, senescent cells have much shorter ones. With each cell division telomeres become shorter. As l o n g as after dozens of divisions TELOMERES get lost and the cell eventually dies. In germline and tumor cells the enzyme telomerase causes elongation of telomeres, making them potentially immortal. In a recently published EXPERIMENT scientists succeeded in transfecting telomerase genes into cultured human cells to give them an unlimited capacity for cell divisions. there you have it. In less than 19 months Telomere Repair has played over 109 shows. 23 states, 43 different cities. Traveled over 22.000 miles in a 4 cylinder pick up. We book the shows ourselves and make our own merch. Special thanks to everyone that has lent a helping hand. the Prospector, john wade brian and lou. Alexs bar.
