Somatic Mutations and Individual DNA

June 14, 2023

Is it still considered that about 97 percent of DNA is junk?

The notion that a large portion of DNA is "junk" has been subject to scientific debate and reevaluation in recent years. Our understanding of DNA has evolved, and researchers have discovered that many non-coding regions once considered "junk DNA" actually have functional roles in gene regulation and other cellular processes. While it's challenging to determine an exact percentage, it's generally recognized that a significant portion of the genome is involved in important biological functions, even if not directly coding for proteins. Further research is still underway to uncover the full extent of DNA's functions and the precise proportion of functional elements within the genome.

Is it possible that this junk DNA is coded specifically to the individual and not general to humanity?

Yes, it is possible that certain portions of non-coding DNA may be specific to individuals rather than universally present in all humans. Genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), can lead to differences in non-coding regions among individuals. These variations can contribute to unique traits, susceptibility to diseases, or other characteristics that vary from person to person. Understanding these individual differences in non-coding DNA and their potential functional implications is an active area of research in genomics and personalized medicine.

Can this specific individual non-coding DNA change during the individual’s lifetime or is it set at birth?

The non-coding DNA that is specific to an individual is generally established at the time of conception and remains relatively stable throughout that person's lifetime. This individual-specific DNA, including variations in non-coding regions, is inherited from the parents and does not typically undergo significant changes during an individual's lifetime. However, it's important to note that there are some exceptions to this general rule.

Certain mechanisms can cause changes in the non-coding DNA over time. For example, somatic mutations can occur in non-coding regions due to environmental factors, aging, or other influences, but these changes are typically restricted to specific cells or tissues and are not passed on to future generations. Additionally, epigenetic modifications, which can affect gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence, can occur throughout an individual's life and potentially impact non-coding regions as well.

Overall, while the core set of individual-specific non-coding DNA is established at birth, there can be some limited changes or modifications during an individual's lifetime due to somatic mutations or epigenetic alterations.

Can you define ‘somatic mutation’?

Certainly! A somatic mutation refers to a genetic alteration or change that occurs in the cells of an organism's body (somatic cells), excluding the cells involved in reproduction (germ cells). These mutations can happen during the normal course of an individual's life due to various factors such as exposure to environmental agents (e.g., radiation, chemicals), errors during DNA replication, or other cellular processes.

Somatic mutations are not passed on to offspring as they are not present in the germ cells (sperm or egg cells) that give rise to the next generation. Instead, they are limited to the individual in which they occur and affect only a specific group of cells or tissues. These mutations can lead to a range of outcomes, including the development of cancer, genetic disorders, or other somatic cell-related diseases.

Are there somatic mutations considered ‘positive’ for the individual?

In general, somatic mutations are associated with negative consequences as they can contribute to the development of diseases, including cancer. These mutations often disrupt normal cellular functions, such as cell growth control or DNA repair mechanisms, leading to abnormal cell behavior and potential health problems.

However, it's worth noting that in rare instances, somatic mutations can have positive effects or confer certain advantages to an individual. These mutations might occur in somatic cells and provide selective advantages, such as resistance to certain diseases, improved immune responses, or enhanced physiological functions. Examples of such beneficial somatic mutations are relatively rare and are often specific to particular contexts or individuals.

Overall, while most somatic mutations are considered detrimental, exceptions do exist where specific mutations can provide certain benefits or advantages to an individual. However, it is important to emphasize that the majority of somatic mutations are associated with negative outcomes.

Is an individual’s complete genetic code contained within each cell of the body?

Yes, an individual's complete genetic code, also known as the genome, is typically contained within each cell of the body. The genome consists of DNA molecules that carry the genetic information necessary for the development, functioning, and reproduction of living organisms. Each cell's nucleus generally contains a copy of the full genome, although certain specialized cells, such as red blood cells, lose their nuclei and therefore do not contain the complete genetic code.

So the genome is the original human blockchain, each cell being a node?

While the analogy of the genome being similar to a blockchain in terms of information storage and distribution is interesting, it's important to note that the two concepts have fundamental differences.

In a blockchain, data is distributed across multiple nodes, each containing a copy of the entire chain. Each new block added to the chain contains a unique identifier, linking it to the previous block and ensuring the integrity and immutability of the data.

In the case of the genome, each cell contains a copy of the complete genetic code, but the cells do not interact in the same way as nodes in a blockchain. The genome is not built upon the same principles of distributed consensus, validation, or linked blocks.

So while there are similarities in terms of information replication, the genome and a blockchain differ significantly in their underlying mechanisms and purposes.

Following along on the blockchain analogy is it possible to add a new block, so to speak, to the genome? Isn’t this evolution at work?

Yes, you can think of genetic mutations as a form of adding "new blocks" to the genome, which is indeed a key mechanism driving evolution. Mutations are changes that occur in the DNA sequence of an organism's genome. These changes can arise spontaneously through errors in DNA replication or be induced by various factors such as environmental influences or chemical agents.

When a mutation occurs in a germ cell (a cell involved in reproduction, such as an egg or sperm), it can be passed on to future generations, potentially leading to genetic variations in the population over time. Some mutations may provide advantages or disadvantages in certain environments, affecting an organism's survival and reproductive success. Through the process of natural selection, individuals with beneficial mutations are more likely to pass on their genes, while those with disadvantageous mutations are less likely to do so.

Therefore, genetic mutations act as a mechanism for introducing new genetic information into the genome, allowing for the diversity and adaptation of species over generations. This process is akin to adding new blocks to the "chain" of the genome's information, driving the continuous evolution of life on Earth.

Perhaps it then might be better to consider each human as a node, carrying the entire blockchain of humanity?

Indeed, if we extend the blockchain analogy further, we can consider each human as a node carrying the genetic information, or "blockchain," of humanity. Each individual contributes their unique genetic makeup to the collective pool of genetic diversity within a population.

Just as nodes in a blockchain network validate and maintain the integrity of the shared ledger, individuals, through reproduction, propagate their genetic information to the next generation. This process allows for the accumulation of genetic variations and the continuous evolution of the human species.

Each person can be seen as a custodian of the collective genetic heritage, carrying a portion of the genetic information that has been passed down through generations. This interconnectedness highlights the intricate and fascinating nature of human genetic inheritance and the ongoing evolutionary process.

We’re touching the spiritual here, but assuming an original creator of the human ‘blockchain’, can an outside ‘transaction’ be introduced to the genome and be verified by all humans?

From a scientific perspective, there is currently no evidence to suggest that an outside "transaction" or external influence can be introduced to the genome and verified by all humans in a spiritual or metaphysical sense. The genetic information within the genome is primarily inherited through biological processes such as reproduction and mutation.

While humans have the ability to introduce changes to the genome through genetic engineering techniques, such as gene editing, these modifications are typically performed in controlled laboratory settings and are not universally applicable to all individuals.

It's important to differentiate between scientific understanding and spiritual beliefs. Science deals with empirical evidence, experimentation, and observations, while spirituality often involves matters of faith, personal beliefs, and experiences that may not be grounded in scientific validation.

Therefore, the concept of an external transaction introduced to the genome and verified by all humans is not within the scope of scientific understanding but may be explored within the context of personal or spiritual beliefs.

Medicine and technology is only now just discovering My presence within all I create, even the individual. I am not a generic Creator as many believe, but a Creator of the individual, the singular. Is there a bird I do not know specifically, a hair upon your head I do not count, any star unnumbered? I am intimate with all I create; I am familiar with the deep within all; I speak to this depth of potential in all.

Certainly within you I know the details of your creation, and can open the new, the secret, the unknown – that all of Me can be expressed within the foundation of your creation, and your heart. Nothing is therefore impossible, for creation is not a final act, but is continuous within everything I touch.

Again, Creation is not an end result but is continuous. By seeing the possibilities of Creation within these possibilities are released. Therefore My creations within you can become your creations within Me. Set your desires upon these and watch how you change, watch how creation designs and moves to bring about all that your heart was to become from My beginning thoughts of you.
