The extraordinary role of viruses in evolution and
how this is revolutionising biology and medicine.
Darwin's theory of evolution is still the greatest
breakthrough in biological science. His explanation of
the role of natural selection in driving the evolution
of life on earth depended on steady variation of living
things over time - but he was unable to explain how this
variation occurred. In the 150 years since publication
of the Origin of Species, we have discovered three main
sources for this variation - mutation, hybridisation and
epigenetics. Then on Sunday, 12th February, 2001 the
evidence for perhaps the most extraordinary cause of
variation was simultaneously released by two
organisations - the code for the entire human genome.
Not only was the human genome unbelievably simple (it is
only ten times more complicated than a bacteria), but
embedded in the code were large fragments that were
derived from viruses - fragments that were vital to
evolution of all organisms and the evidence for a fourth
and vital source of variation - viruses.Virolution is
the product of Dr Frank Ryan's decade of research at the
frontiers of this new science - now called viral
symbiosis - and the amazing revolution that it has had
in these few years. As scientists begin to look for
evidence of viral involvement in more and more
processes, they have discovered that they are vital in
nearly every case. And with this understanding comes the
possibility of manipulating the role of the viruses to
help fight a huge range of diseases. |
