Abstract
⺠Methionine restriction decreases mtROS production at complex I and mtDNA damage. ⺠Restriction of dietary protein can be the first (partial) DR-mimic for human beings. ⺠mtDNA is situated close to or even in contact with the site of mtROS generation. ⺠That disposition helps to control the longevity of the different animal species. ⺠A low rate of generation of endogenous damage is a main trait of long-lived animals.
