DNA circles – Uncommon Descent

Genetics horizontal gene transfer Intelligent Design

Rob Sheldon on those curious DNA circles in the human body and the death of Common Descent

This little toolkit looks designed for horizontal gene transport (HGT), but there wasn’t anything similar to it for eukaryotes. Then came this article. And apparently humans (a rather sophisticated eukaryote) have circular DNA as well, it just was overlooked for 30 years.
