Genetic Landmarks

  • The Origin of Species

    The Origin of Species

    C. Darwin explains that human beings do not appear from nowhere, they have an origin and that they are changing little by little.
  • Mendel's laws

    Mendel's laws

    Gregor Mendel creates this set of basic rules on the transmission by genetic inheritance of characteristics from parent organisms to their children
  • Down's syndrome

    Down's syndrome

    John L. Dawn described the cause of genetic disease, Down's syndrome, to discover the extra copy of chromosome 21.
  • Gens on chromosomes

    Gens on chromosomes

    Thomas Hunt Morgan shows that genes reside on chromosomes.
  • DNA in chromosomes and RNA in cytoplasm

    DNA in chromosomes and RNA in cytoplasm

    Jean Brachet proves that DNA is found in chromosomes and that RNA is present in the cytoplasm of all cells.
  • The structure of the double helix

    The structure of the double helix

    Watson and Crick discovered the structure of the double helix, which is associated with the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
  • The Meselson-Stahl experiment

    The Meselson-Stahl experiment

    The Meselson-Stahl experiment demonstrates that DNA is replicated in semiconservador way.
  • Triplets or codons

    Triplets or codons

    The genetic code is arranged in triplets or codons.
  • Huma genenome project

    Huma genenome project

    Determines the sequence of pairs of chemical bases that make up DNA. Publishes the first complete sequencing of the human genome with a 99.99% loyalty.
  • CRISPR

    CRISPR

    It is a technique that allows you to edit the genes, and so the doctors can modify the genome and manipulate DNA cutting parts and adding new.
