Today, scientists at Princeton University's Center for Genetic Studies announced that they had located the primary gene causing a type of pedophilia. Pedophilia is defined by the American Psychiatric Association as an unnatural attraction between men and children. This particular gene is responsible for some men's unnatural attraction to young boys. According to Dr. Landers, senior researcher and holder of the distinguished Morton B. Earl Chair of Genetics at the Center, the gene is positioned in the upper third of the 23rd Y chromosome. Until the recent discovery, the da Vinci gene as it is called, was generally believed to play a major role in triggering a host of other genes on the 23rd chromosome that are responsible for such things as advanced cognitive development and the extraordinary levels of creativity to be found in a very small percentage of males. There is some evidence that it generates superior physical characteristics as well.

The da Vinci gene was named by Dr. Alphonse Coleman of Stanford University's Human Genome Center, who discovered it earlier this year. The name was selected to honor the 15th Century genius, Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), who in addition to being the most important artist, sculpture, and scientist of the Renaissance, was also an inventor of the highest order. It is paradoxical that he was also a pedophile of great repute in Italy, although the gene's connection to pedophilia was unknown at the time it was named. At the age of 38, Leonardo "adopted" a boy, described by him as "thieving, lying, and obstinate", but who was according to Leonardo's acquaintances, also beautiful and roguish. When they met, he was ten years old. Named Salai for "Little Devil, he was da Vinci's inseparable companion for some 26 years. As it happens, Leonardo was not alone in his love of boys. Among a great many of the world's most talented men, Michelangelo, in his late 60s was infatuated with the boy, Cecchino dei Bracci; William Shakespeare dedicated many of his 154 love sonnets to a ten-year-old boy, the Earl of Pembroke; and Tchaikovsky and Schubert are known to have indulged in the practice of pederasty, according to Dr. Landers.

It is believed that the gene, although very uncommon in the population, occurs disproportionately in Caucasians and Asians, accounting for the prevalence of deviant behavior in those races as well as statistical anomalies in intelligence. Dr. Landers stated that although it is normally considered recessive, the gene's role is somewhat different to other genes in that it acts to trigger other genes into dominance, some on the X chromosome provided by the mother but primarily elsewhere on the poorly understood 23rd Y chromosome. When recessive, it triggers very few if any other genes, but at least fifty and sixty boy babies are born every year in the U.S. with the gene fully dominant. These boys could achieve da Vinci's stature if they had the right environment, Dr. Landers observed. "You have to keep in mind the complexities of today's world. Realistically, it isn't likely that a renaissance man like Leonardo could occur again under normal conditions, particularly given the much greater depth of knowledge that is required in each field nowadays. Instead, you find great minds in individual disciplines, like mathematics, the sciences, the arts, and, of course, in business. What we've observed is that the da Vinci gene creates a special person who is very much in Leonardo's image but who tends to specialize in one or two fields," said Dr. Landers. "They show an inordinate ability to be both exceptionally creative and to bring forth what for the rest of us are very complex ideas."

Male sexual orientation was previously thought to be carried on the female's X chromosome or caused by environmental factors, such as exposure to high levels of testosterone while in the womb, resulting in homosexuality. However, research has shown that a type of sexual orientation that attracts men to young boys is quite different and is apparently unrelated to homosexuality since it is caused by the male's Y chromosome. Dr. Landers refers to this attraction to young boys as da Vinci orientation to avoid the unpleasant associations of pedophilia. In particular, the da Vinci gene interacts with the receptor gene on the X chromosome to begin the process. When dominant, the gene initiates a chain reaction on the Y chromosome that can involve hundreds of other genes of various functions causing da Vinci attributes. Even when it is recessive, the gene causes males to show varying levels of attraction to young males, sometimes only as a nurturing tendency, or mild preference, but in other more extreme cases as pedophilia. What causes the gene to be dominant is unknown at this time.

The unusual role of the da Vinci gene was discovered during Dr. Landers' DNA research using over 1,000 convicted sex offenders. Landers observed that the gene was present in a few exceedingly intelligent males who were also predetermined to pedophilia. "It is important to differentiate between them and those men who are inclined towards young boys because they were abused themselves when they were young," said Landers. He indicated that because of AIDS, the da Vinci gene is thought to be present in only one percent of males. The gene may have been very common in males in ancient Greece and other ancient cultures, accounting for the very high incidence and general social acceptance of pederasty in those societies. "Normally, it's a recessive gene that has varying effects in the triggering process," according to Dr. Landers. "This means that some 140,000 boys and men in the U.S. will have the da Vinci gene in their DNA and possess pederastic tendencies to varying degrees, although very few of them will act on their attraction. Currently, about 3,000 babies are born with a recessive da Vinci gene every year, but it manifests its full effect in very few of them. It will be a relatively simple matter to develop a genetic test, enabling screening prior to conception, or to identify potential sex offenders."
