> Three genes were turned off that might otherwise have triggered an immediate immune rejection – the recognition of a pig organ as coming from a different species. Six human genes were added to prevent blood from coagulating in the heart, improve molecular compatibility and reduce the risk of rejection.
> One final gene was turned off to keep the pig from growing too large.
So they actually did make the pig a tiny bit human.
