Denisovan Genome Decoded In 2010‚ Svante Pääbo and his colleagues presented a draft version of the genome from a small fragment of a human finger bone discovered in Denisova Cave in southern Siberia. The DNA sequences showed that this individual came from a previously unknown group of extinct humans that have become known as Denisovans. Together with their sister group the Neandertals‚ Denisovans are the closest extinct relatives of currently living humans. Until recently‚ most scientists thought

make a new human genome‚ making big changes to DNA that would change science and medicine. These changes could alter the life of humans in amazing ways. It could also spell disaster for humans as well. Altering DNA to create a new type of alien like human is revolutionary and scary. What will be the purpose of these alien humans? Will they be enslaved once matured‚ since they are not real humans? Scientists may have good intentions for this project. However‚ making a new group of humans brings up

company you get this analysis done through. What is a Personal Genome Analysis? Most of what we are as humans is determined by our DNA. It determines the various traits and characteristics we inherit from our parents. This includes how we look‚ how we react to environmental factors such as sunlight‚ and finally‚ it moderately influences our behaviour. A personal genome analysis is completed when an individual has their genome sequenced. It is analyzed in a detail-oriented manner to give you information
