Neandertals Likely Kept Their Genes to Themselves
Scientists searching for clues
to our origins have long relied on
studying fossils to piece together our
evolutionary history. Now, with the tools
of molecular genetics, they can reach
beyond morphological evidence to
retrieve traces of DNA preserved in the
remnants of bone. And in these ancient
DNA sequences, they’re ?nding bits and
pieces of the evolutionary record. Over
the course of evolution, changes in DNA
sequences accumulate at a predictable
rate.These mutations can
could not have made a signi?cant genetic
contribution to early modern humans.
Part of the challenge of resolving the
human–Neandertal interbreeding issue
stems from the fact that so many fossil
samples—of both early humans and
more archaic humans—are contaminated
with the DNA of the contemporary
humans who have handled them. So
even if a Neandertal sample contained
a“real”(or endogenous) DNA sequence
resembling early humans—which
As these fossils are precious
commodities, Pbo’s group applied a
technique developed in their lab that
uses amino acid content as a measure
of extractable endogenous DNA and
requires removing just 10 mg of bone
from a specimen rather than much
larger pieces of bone. Of 24 Neandertal
and 40 early modern human fossils
analyzed, they found four Neandertal
and ?ve early human specimens that
passed the amino acid test.These fossils
included samples classi?ed as
“transitional”between the two
groups and represented a wide
distribution across Europe,

related we are but also when
evolutionary lineages diverged.
