Octopuses Edit Their Genetic Code Like No Other Animal
New research into the cephalopod genome is undermining our suppositions about advancement, and the part that DNA changes play in refreshing an animal categories' physiology.
Specialists from the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole and Tel Aviv University have been contemplating how cephalopods — squids, octopuses, cuttlefish and nautiluses — alter their genome, and found that as opposed to depending on DNA transformations to adjust, they can roll out improvements to their RNA, the hereditary "envoys" that complete the directions composed by DNA. This implies their basic hereditary code remains to a great extent the same from era to era, while changes happen at the level of the individual and don't extend to their posterity/italianska.
