Describe or explain how SNPs in genes at evolutionary conserved breakpoints can lead to dramatic phenotypic differences between species like chimpanzees and humans even though their genomes are 98% similar? Provide and describe or explain an example of one gene with SNP differences between gorillas and humans that might have resulted changes between humans and apes. Solution SNP ( Single nucleotide polymorphism) is a type of genetic variation among living beings. SNP represents a difference in a single DNA building block i.e, nucleotide. SNP replaces the nucleotide cytosine ( C) With ghe nucleotide thymine (T) in a stetch of DNA. The difference between the two genomes of humans and chimpanzees is actually 4% approximately. This msinly contributes to the phenotypic differences in various species. Humans differbfrom other primates like chimpanzees and apes in cognitive abilities and a significantly larger brain. These correlate with metabolic changes, etc. Example of such genes with SNP differences is 90 TF genes with significant expression levels in humans and chimpanzee brain. Among these KRAB-Zinc finger genes are markedly important. The differentially expressed TFs cluster within robust regulatory network consisting of two distinct but interlinked modules, strongly associated with energy metabolism functions and the others with transcription, vesticular transport and ubiquitination..
