Der Biologiehistoriker Thomas Junker beginnt bei den Genen, auch den egoistischen, erklärt dann, was bei Primaten die Größe der Hoden über die Qualität ihrer amourösen Beziehungen verrät und bietet auch sonst so manchen erhellenden Einblick.
Das Video zeigt einen Ausschnitt aus dem Vortrag „Die Gene – Freund oder Feind? — Zum Menschenbild der evolutionären Psychologie“ von Prof. Dr. Thomas Junker beim Symposium turmdersinne 2012 mit dem Thema „Das Tier im Menschen“, veranstaltet von der gemeinnützigen turmdersinne GmbH, Programmgestaltung durch Dr. Rainer Rosenzweig und Helmut Fink. Eine DVD mit dem kompletten Vortrag ist dort verfügbar.
Information unit on DNA. Specialized enzymes translate the core component of a gene into ribonucleic acid (RNA). While some ribonucleic acids perform important functions in the cell themselves, others specify the order in which the cell should assemble individual amino acids into a specific protein. The gene thus provides the code for this protein. In addition, a gene also includes regulatory elements on the DNA that ensure that the gene is read exactly when the cell or organism actually needs its product.
