Something like Star Trek Genisis : rebirth of Spock?

Or more simple like a planet that exploded sending us meteroriotes full of viruses?

The latter, but they're not viruses per-se. They are transposons that can piggyback on viruses to get to our nucleus.

This does make sense. A virus transporting DNA material lands on a planet and disperses to infect the host species and at the same time releases that DNA material of an alien world.

I was thinking of a more direct nature of aliens actively transforming our DNA to separate humans from other primates.
