Sinopsis

Dr. Dan Reynolds presents the recent evidence that the DNA that does not code for proteins, previously referred to as junk DNA and thus a vestigial remnant of our evolutionary history, is not junk after all. Rather, the ENCODE project has shown that more than 80% of this DNA is transcribed into RNA with regulatory and repair functions and which controls folding and maintenance of chromosomes. To quote genetics professor Dan Graur, “If ENCODE is right, then evolution is wrong.”
