Where do genes come from? – Carl Zimmer The pseudoscientific nonsense touted in this video has been refuted by decades of experimental evidence. The experimental evidence links RNA-directed DNA methylation from nutrient-dependent amino acid substitutions to the de novo Creation of olfactory receptor genes and fixation of amino acid substitutions in the DNA of organized … De novo gene Creation sans evolution of genes via mutations
