Part of this species' transdifferentiation process in the cyst stage is increased expression of various DNA repair mechanisms include telomerase [1]. > Transcripts associated with telomere organization and maintenance, DNA integration, repair, and damage response were among those that showed high expression in the cyst relative to medusa and polyp.
