But before doing that, I just briefly want to remind you about what you already know: that our genomes, our
genetic
material, are stored in almost all cells in our bodies in chromosomes in the form of DNA, which is this famous double-helical molecule.
And the
genetic
information is contained in the form of a sequence of four bases abbreviated with the letters A, T, C and G.
And what you can then also begin to do is to say, "How are these
genetic
differences distributed across the world?"
And if you do that, you find a certain amount of
genetic
variation in Africa.
And if you look outside Africa, you actually find less
genetic
variation.
Yet the people inside Africa have more
genetic
variation.
Moreover, almost all these
genetic
variants we see outside Africa have closely related DNA sequences that you find inside Africa.
But if you look in Africa, there is a component of the
genetic
variation that has no close relatives outside.
Another consequence of this recent origin of modern humans is that
genetic
variants are generally distributed widely in the world, in many places, and they tend to vary as gradients, from a bird's-eye perspective at least.
I mean, if they have the same mutation, and they get this
genetic
test and they understand it, then they can get regular screens and can catch cancer early, and potentially live a significantly longer life.
I just recently had to buy life insurance, and I was required to answer: A. I have never had a
genetic
test; B. I've had one, here you go; or C. I've had one and I'm not telling.
And when I looked at the sequence of the DNA, and compared the sequence of Jonas' tumor to that of the rest of his body, I discovered that they had a completely different
genetic
profile.
In fact,
genetic
profiling tells that it may be tens of thousands of years old, which means that this cancer may have first arisen from the cells of a wolf that lived alongside the Neanderthals.
It occurred in the 1990s, when, as you know, for the first time, biologists were taking large amounts of
genetic
data to collect in the Human Genome Project.
And they sat and they discussed the problem for several days, and they came up with what are now called the Bermuda Principles, which state that: first, once human
genetic
data is taken in the lab, it should be immediately uploaded to a site like GenBank; and two, that the data would be in the public domain.
But people would write into the site with all sorts of, all sorts of stories about these animals and wanting to help me get samples for
genetic
analysis.
And I think every human, we all have different
genetic
backgrounds, we all have lived separate lives.
We're similar at the
genetic
level.
Whether or not that's due to an individual's
genetic
background or their experiences, we don't know.
The 21 species are indicated here by this phylogeny, this evolutionary tree, that shows their
genetic
relationships, and I've colored in yellow the orb-web-weaving spiders.
No matter what level you look at, whether it's at the ecosystem level or at the species level or at the
genetic
level, we see the same problem again and again.
Or for that matter, if you look at the
genetic
level, 60 percent of medicines were prospected, were found first as molecules in a rainforest or a reef.
That
genetic
material probably belonged, if it could belong to anyone, to a local community of poor people who parted with the knowledge that helped the researchers to find the molecule, which then became the medicine.
We'll also have to grow more food with less climate stability and less
genetic
diversity.
We need our
genetic
varieties because they're a sort of insurance policy against climate change.
The problems that we face is that the current method used to prevent and treat those dreadful diseases, such as
genetic
control, exploiting natural sources of resistance, crop rotation or seed treatment, among others, are still limited or ephemeral.
One third of it, in fact, is
genetic.
Those are the letters of
genetic
code, the 25,000 genes you've got written in your DNA.
And in that space station we have the
genetic
material, the chromosomes, within a nucleus.
These chains then progress and attach to the
genetic
material and pull the
genetic
material from one cell into two cells.
