Can you combing human DNA with other animal DNA?

Answer 1

a science team in Britain has succefully fused human with cow DNA, but only in unborn fetus's, causing some religious squabble.(not that religious squabbles matter in science name) It is uknknown if it is possible to put animal DNA in humans already grown with a concious. It would create problems like disease and blood clotting so it is to dangerous to experiment with humans at the time.

what do you call stem cells. scientist have used pigs stem cell to rejuvenate human limbs.

According to the UK Times, animal and human DNA has been mixed for the first time in Britain. They did it by adding human DNA to empty cow eggs. But, the mixture is 99.9 human DNA, and only .1% cow DNA. It is already illegal to culture human-animal embryos for more than 14 days, or to implant them in the womb of a woman or animal, so we don't know what lies in our future, or what we can 'make.'

An American scientist says: "In Minnesota, pigs are being born with human blood in their veins. In Nevada, there are sheep whose livers and hearts are largely human. In California, mice peer from their cages with human brain cells firing inside their skulls." This is not fiction, it is a fact. People are starting to mix human and animal DNA, and the experiments are getting more intense and severe.

In Reno, Nevada, a man named Jason Chamberlain takes care of a flock of 50 sheep, but many them have human livers, hearts, brains, and other organs. In California, scientist have created pigs with human blood, fused rabbit eggs with human DNA, and injected human cells to make paralyzed mice walk. In January, scientists at Stanford University created a group of mice with brains made completely out of human brain cells. The mice are 1% human. Years ago, Professor Stuart Newman and Activist Jeremy Rifkin proposed to create for what they called a "humanzee," a creature that was half human and half chimp. They never created it.

Answer 2

Some people ask can you mix human and animal dna. My answer is yes you could. As long a you took thprocedure slowly and combined the dna one step and small amount at a time it is possible to mix the dna. My question is would the human gain attributes from the animals dna such as enhanced hearing, sight, sense of smell, a tail, and ears or something like that. If scientists can find a way to successfully combine human and animal dna without casualty I would volunteer for it.

Biological medicines are designed to mimic certain 'naturally' occurring proteins that, when used therapeutically, interrupt signaling of the immune system and, at times, induce the death of the target cells. They represent complex proteins that are produced using recombinant DNA techniques and various levels of purification. Infliximab is a chimeric (derived from human and mouse gene sequences) monoclonal IgG antibodies that binds TNF-A a potent inflammatory mediator; the variable portion of the antibody is coded by sequences common to both human and murine DNA. Infliximab is supplied as 100 mg of preservative-free powder that is reconstituted prior to intravenous infusion. Dosing is weight based, typically 5 mg/kg given intravenously initially, followed by dosing at 2 and 6 weeks, and every 8 weeks thereafter. As A Crohn's disease patient, I have seen the direct benefit of this experimentation.

Answer #1

As of this point in time you can't.

Answer 4

Yes and no. The only distinction between humans and animals is in the eye of the beholder. However, viable DNA through either natural or artificial methods of reproduction can only be created, by modern knowledge, between members of the same Genus (it's speculated that this could be extended to members of the same Family, but evidence for this is limited at best). Using this information, it can be inferred that human DNA can combine with that of Neanderthals,HeidelbergMen, and a number of other extinct species. It has been debated as to whether or not human and chimpanzee DNA is compatible, but this has not been tested reliably due to crippling ethical issues. Chimpanzees are our closest living ancestor, but are still classified in a different Genus, and do have a different number of chromosomes. This means that it is dubious that human DNA can viably combine with the DNA of any other extant animals.

Answer 5

yes u can if u get bitten by a poisonous animal it can affect your blood and so then u can combing the human DNA with the animal DNA

Answer 6

Im an idiot by the way we know

Answer 7

bird with human?
