Gene Regulation Makes The Human
Recently genetisists have been working with human and chimp DNA. They believe that they have found what gene makes us differ from the chimp. A recent experiment in which genetisist James Noonan and colleauges have taken bits of human and chinp DNA and inserted them into mice. After a while the mice with human DNA had shown growth in the thumb, toe, forelimb, and hind limb, while the mouse with the chimp DNA only showed a small ammount of change. To truely test these results the genetisists took the bits of chimp and human DNA and inserted them into mice embryo. The results came back the same with the mouse with human DNA grew the thumb, toe, and limbs, while the chimp did not.
