No, the genetic make up of each species DNA are completely different so that it is not compatible for combination. Not to mention the obvious ethical and moral parameters that would be violated.

AnswerI would have to say yes only because of the fact that our DNA is made up of our Genes and those only have so many vereations and there pourpos is determoned more by there place than there structre though i am not a genetisis AnswerI would have to agree with the person above me. I do think that it is possible to combine human DNA with avian DNA. Recently, this week, scientists in Taiwan combined the DNA from a Jellyfish with pig emryos. The baby pigs that were born growed completely green as Jellyfish do. So, why couldn't it be possible to combine human DNA and avian DNA? Nothing... it is completely possible, although, the risk may be high and the testing may be illegal. It is still theoretically possible. AnswerAt present, there are sheep with genetic markers to allow them to produce the protein for Black Widows' Silk. It works. Sheep DNA and spider DNA were combined. The problem is, it took many attempts to finally get the DNA combination right, in order to not produce massively deformed sheep. I'm sure many sheep were born with horrific mutations, or were still-born, or didn't live long after birth before they got everything right. To do experiments like that on humans would violate our twisted morality which states that we can mutilate "lower" animals, but not each other. So I don't see it happening anytime soon. And certainly not legally.

i think its possible seeing how in Britain they were mixing a cows embryo with a human DNA its possibel if the brake through is a succes than we will probably be able to do it with other animals

I guess that humans would have the ability to put those genes together and the humans would survive, but it's still sort of immoral. Still, I wouldn't mind being part avian. Anyone know where I could give up my body for it?

Answer

i am currently doing research in the field of DNA recombination and can say with absolute certainty that it is possible. just to clear up a few things, unlike what others have said, our DNA is incredibly similar to other species. our DNA makes up genes, not the other way aroung (nucleotide base pairs make up our DNA). a lot of people don't realize it but DNA recombination is prevelent today, all of the insulin a diabetic takes is created by bacteria that have the DNA that creates insulin from a human. it fits perfectly. i take it you got this idea from the series Maximum Ride (I'm a fan), and the science in the book is completely real.

Yes, it is possible to graft avian DNA with human DNA. Studies show that a person can combine the two DNA. In some cases people have grafted jellyfish DNA with a sheep. the piglets turned green. while it is immorally wrong, we still have the technology to graft the two DNA.

I personally am a HUGE fan of Maximum Ride and I think it's possible to make the ultimate bird-kid. If it's possible to make an adolescent have wings RIGHT NOW, I don't care if it hurts, I will sign myself up to be a bird-kid. To all you crazy scientists, I'm out here!!

Literally it is possible to put insect DNA into a human being. Take for example mosquitoes, when they suck blood they replace the blood with a fluid that causes mosquito bites to be itchy and swell up. So, the insect's DNA is technically in your body at that time.

If you meant "Can insect DNA and human DNA be mixed together?" then the answer is no, even though Jeff Goldblum did it in 1986 in the movie The Fly. Humans and insects don't share enough genes to be able to mix the DNA like in cloning or reproduction. Even apes (which are 96% similar to humans) can't mix genes in this way.

I would have to say yes, even though that some people think its not possible it probably would be. Its just that we don't have that type of technology YET. In one way no because if we screw up we could turn into some Avian monster. But hang in there guys.

Can you really inject yourself with avian DNA and get wings?

No. Injecting avian DNA into your body would not give you wings, nor should it affect your DNA.


What are recombinant Life forms?

A recombinant life form is created when the genetic material that is produced by segments of DNA from different sources are joined to produce recombinant DNA. In simpler terms, it's when two sets of DNA are grafted together producing a hybrid of the two organisms that the DNA was extracted from. Normally, one set of DNA will be grafted with the other when it is still a living organism. An example could be avian DNA getting grafted onto the DNA of a living human, creating an avian/human hybrid. Maximum Ride (a series by James Patterson) is a very good example of this.


Can you combine avian DNA with a grow humans DNA so that the human grows wings?

yes it is possible. go to the discussion page to see in more detail, as i have posted what you would require to do so.


Could you find d.n.a from dinosaurs?

The non avian dinosaur fossils are so old that no DNA is left. Therefor, you can't find the DNA from non avian dinosaurs. However, birds, which are considered dinosaurs, exist today and it isn't hard to get bird DNA.


Did Dr Martinez give Max up willingly to the School when Max was little Like...how did Max end up in the School?

Max ended up in the school, because Jeb wanted to graft avian DNA into a newborn child, so him and Dr Martinez decided to have Max and they gave her to the School.

No it is not possible as these two are heterologus species.


Why do you graft plants?

DNA grafting is when a segment of DNA is removed and is replaced by another form of the DNA structure. The replaced DNA structure is usually bound together tightly until the original DNA "forms" into the replaced structure.


How much does DNA testing cost for animals and who does it?

costs nothing and you do it :)It depends on what kind of DNA test you need for the type of animal you want.There are Avian DNA tests available for Bird sexing, For Canine there are DNA tests for dog breeds and deceases.
