Geneticly speaking we are very closely related to all the primates. We evolved from a common ancestor. Our immune system had to deal with virtually the same threats as the chimps, however we are far more migratory and prolific than most other primates. The AIDS virus is assumed to come orginally from another primate species when it crossed over and started infecting us. We will use chimps in experiments on therapies that can possibly benefit humans. Better them than us.

How does DNA evidence support the claim that chimps are the most closely related to humans?

You can see that chimps are related to humans from DNA. We share about 98% of the nucleotides with chimps. The ERV's between chimps and humans are reverse transcripted into both creatures in the same spots and that is not plausible by anything but a relationship with them. The Chromosomes are identical except for chromosome #2 in humans and that shows a fusion of two chromosomes from our ancestors. Chimps along with all of our primate cousins are going extinct. Like in comparative morphology, comparative genomics shows that in the nested hierarchies, chimps have the most homologies and the fewest differences in a nucleotide by nucleotide comparison of the genome.
