In the words of the experts I've spoken to on my show, gene mutations can play a major role in impressive and not-so-impressive outcomes in evolutionary biology. But what's really fascinating is the understanding that our genes aren't as straightforward as we might think. Instead of having a one-to-one relationship where each gene is responsible for a specific trait, it turns out that a single gene can have multiple roles.

Taking it a step further, it's not just about the genes themselves. I've had conversations suggesting that the aging process might be more related to the "reader" of the genes, or the epigenome. This might be a tricky concept, but think about it like this – imagine your genes are the songs on a CD, and the epigenome is the laser that reads the CD. Over time, it's the reader, the laser, that deteriorates and gets worn out, not the songs themselves.

It's crazy to think about, right? But that's not even the half of it. Did you know that we've potentially screwed up the gene pool of our laboratory animals due to selective breeding practices? That’s like tampering with the integrity of our biological insights. The whole subject of gene mutation is so much more complicated and fascinating than most of us ever knew!

Man, I wish I could help you with that, but based on these transcripts we've been going over, there wasn't any mention of Gary Brecka highlighting a specific test and gene in relation to Dana White. But it sounds like some fascinating stuff. I'd definitely be up for digging into that in a future conversation.
