It starts with the genome. The genome is composed of sequences of nucleotides called genes. The gene sequences are preceded by what are called promoter regions. Depending on the promoter sequence, a group of proteins collectively called an RNA polymerase bind with different affinities. The RNA polymerase then slides along the gene sequence at a rapid pace and creates another sequence of nucleotides based on the sequence from the DNA that it is reading. This new sequence is called an mRNA sequence. The mRNA sequence then gets bound by another cluster of proteins called the ribosome. The ribosome slides along the mRNA and creates a chain of amino acids based on the mRNA sequence. This chain of amino acids (called a polypeptide) then folds into a specific shape based on the chemical properties of the amino acids. The protein then associates with other proteins and they perform a function together. These functions are what make up your body.
To recap: your body is the result of interacting proteins. Your proteins' functions are determined by their shape. Their shape is determined by the sequence in the mRNA. The mRNA sequence is dictated the DNA sequence. The DNA sequence is highly irregular specified information. Despite a thorough search, highly irregular specified information only has one known cause: intelligence.
You wouldn't tell me what type of evidence you would consider evidence of design, so I just started here.
Well, no, it doesn't start with the genome. It starts with much simpler chemicals and all genomes are products of evolution.
What makes you think that chemicals will produce genomes? Lone nucleotides or even nucleic acids are not the same as genomes. Similarly, amino acids are not the same as genomes. Not only do you need nucleotide codes to arise, you also need a system to connect this to a protein code to eventually arise as well.
