This finding 'proved' the significance of chromosomal rearrangement, a crucial evolutionary indicator of the emergence of a new species.
Gorilla at Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii."Genomic imprinting is frequently lost, meaning the information about which genes should be active disappears, in haploid embryonic stem cells, limiting their pluripotency and genetic engineering," said Wang Libin, first author of the study and a researcher with CAS and the Beijing Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine.
There are two sets of chromosomes in diploid cells that align and negotiate the genetics of the resulting organism. This is known as genomic imprinting, and it occurs when a dominant gene is marked active while a recessive gene is marked inactive.
