Jeffreys, Alec John. 1/9/1950 â ENGLISH GENETICIST. Alec John Jeffreys is a geneticist who is best known for the introduction of DNA analysis to forensic science. He discovered one of the most important tools for identifying human beings, genetic fingerprinting. This procedure analyzes each individual's genetic code.
This is called the RNA world hypothesis. Why RNA? It can encode genetic instructions (like DNA), and some RNAs can carry out chemical reactions (like proteins). Therefore, it solves the chicken-and-egg problem of which of these two molecules came first. Other evidence also suggests that RNA may be the most ancient of the organic molecules.
