Mystery of our 145 'alien' genes: Scientists discover some DNA is NOT from our ancestors -- and...

Humans contain 'alien' genes not passed on from our ancestors, researchers have discovered.

The say we acquired essential 'foreign' genes from microorganisms co-habiting their environment in ancient times.

The study challenges conventional views that animal evolution relies solely on genes passed down through ancestral lines -- and says the process could still be going on.

Cambridge researchers say we acquired essential 'foreign' genes from microorganisms co-habiting their environment in ancient times.

Horizontal Gene Transfer

The transfer of genes between organisms living in the same environment is known as horizontal gene transfer (HGT).

It is well known in single-celled organisms and thought to be an important process that explains how quickly bacteria evolve, for example, resistance to antibiotics...

'This is the first study to show how widely horizontal gene transfer (HGT) occurs in animals, including humans, giving rise to tens or hundreds of active 'foreign' genes,' said lead author Alastair Crisp from the University of Cambridge.

'Surprisingly, far from being a rare occurrence, it appears that HGT has contributed to the evolution of many, perhaps all, animals and that the process is ongoing, meaning that we may need to re-evaluate how we think about evolution.'

...A number of genes, including the ABO blood group gene, were confirmed as having been acquired by vertebrates through HGT. The majority of the other genes were related to enzymes involved in metabolism.

Anyone who doesn't believe alien DNA hasn't infiltrated humanity just isn't paying attention:

Both of them caught it from Mister Bunny, and the less we know about that three-way relationship, the better.

Also Zecharia Sitchin. I have no clue if he knew what he was writing about, but it was interesting.
