Abstract
Alexey Olovnikov (1936-2022) is an author of the famous marginotomy hypothesis, where he recognized the DNA end replication problem and its role in cell aging. In this biographical note we celebrate the 50th anniversary of this theoretical discovery that later enjoyed a brilliant confirmation and gave rise to a new thriving field of molecular biology and gerontology. We also take a look at the evolution of ideas in Alexey Olovnikov's lifelong quest to uncover the molecular mechanisms of aging, exploring the reasons why he walked away from his initial conclusion about the key role of telomeres in aging, and built a new vast theoretical landscape that linked all stages of ontogenesis.
