Genetic Blueprints. To map the chimp genome, researchers used DNA from the blood of a male common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) named Clint, who lived at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center in Atlanta. Clint died last year from heart failure at the relatively young age of 24. A comparison of Clint's genetic blueprints with that of the human genome shows that our closest living relatives share 96 percent of our DNA.
King compared the genes of chimps and humans. When she did, she was in for a surprise. The humans and chimpanzees were not 50% similar genetically, or 60%, or even 80%, they were 98 to 99% similar, nearly identical. All of the differences between us and them, must relate to the 2%.What has followed has been a rich and detailed consideration, a consideration that is still very much underway, of the 2%.s a results, humans and chimpanzees are really no longer that similar. The differences in the species we associate with, our parasites and pathogens (and then also our agricultural species), are the biggest differences between us and them, between chimps and humans.
