DNA methylation (DNAm) age, a novel marker of biological aging, has been shown to predict mortality and to be associated with physiological aging. However, the relative contribution of genetic and environmental factors to DNAm age over life span is not fully known. We estimated the magnitude of genetic and environmental factors in DNAm based age acceleration.
