With its four-letter language, DNA contains the information needed to build the entire human body.
- Human genome - WikipediaThe human genome is a complete set of nucleic acid sequences for humans, encoded as the DNA within each of the 24 distinct chromosomes in the cell nucleus. A small DNA molecule is found within individual mitochondria.
- Human Genome Project - WikipediaThe Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international scientific research project with the goal of determining the base pairs that make up human DNA, and of identifying, mapping and sequencing all of the genes of the human genome from both a physical and a functional standpoint.
- The complete sequence of a human genome | Science - AAASA number of companion studies were carried out to characterize the complete sequence of a human genome, including comprehensive analyses of centromeric satellites , segmental duplications , transcriptional and epigenetic profiles , mobile elements , and variant calls .
- Human genome | DNA Sequencing & Mapping | BritannicaHuman genome, all of the approximately three billion base pairs of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that make up the entire set of chromosomes of the human organism. The human genome includes the coding regions of DNA, which encode all the genes (between 20,000 and 25,000) of the human organism, as well.
