A successful double-inverted invertebrate, kicks off the process of evolving hundreds of millions of years to form humans and other high-level animals, scientists claim.

The good news is that these ancient double-stranded DNA helped strengthen the 'communication' system between cells, whereby cells in the human body today can collect, process, and integrate export information. better than the smartest smartphones. However, the bad news is that this 'mistake' can cause diabetes, cancer and neurological disorders, University of Dundee Professor Carol MacKintosh explained on Discovery News.

This is considered to be the closest relative to the boneless animal
living mirrored DNA abnormalities 500 million years ago.

Bisexual reproductive organisms often have two versions of the entire genome, one inherited from the father and the other from the mother. However, what happened 500 million years ago was that this process had 'abnormal problems' in an invertebrate animal. As a result, the child inherits twice as many genes as normal. In the next generation, this mistake continues, ie, the number of each gene continues to be doubled.

Ms. MacKintosh said this duplication phenomenon also occurs in the evolution of plants. Fortunately, despite being born from 'wrong' , the living creatures still survive and grow well.

Her team has saved about a few hundred active proteins within human cells, with the key protein codenamed 14-3-3.

They conducted genetic mapping, classifying and biochemical analysis of these proteins. The results show that the 14-3-3 protein originated from the Cambrian period 500 million years ago.

The first animal to have a 14-3-3 protein has not yet been identified, but the sequencing of the gene suggests that an existing invertebrate species known as amphioxus is similar to the other unknown.

The 14-3-3 protein seems to have evolved to form a 'team' and act as a multi-dimensional signal receiving system, helping the body receive multiple messages at the same time. But if for some reason, one or more proteins in the 'team' disappear or mutate, the individual, though still alive, suffers from many disorders, including diabetes and cancer.

For example, with type 2 diabetes, muscle cells have lost their ability to absorb sugar. In contrast, cancer cells did not wait for the body's instructions to clear nutrients and grow out of control, explained MacKintosh.
