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.
