Bookmark or Share- The Human Genome - Genomes - NCBI BookshelfThe Human Genome Project was conceived in 1984 and begun in earnest in 1990 with the primary aim of determining the nucleotide sequence of the entire human nuclear genome. The much smaller mitochondrial genome had been sequenced in the early 1980s ( Anderson et al ., 1981 ).
- Human Genome Project (HGP) | History, Timeline, & Facts | BritannicaHuman Genome Project (HGP), an international collaboration that successfully determined, stored, and rendered publicly available the sequences of almost all the genetic content of the chromosomes of the human organism, otherwise known as the human genome.
- 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.
- Introduction - Mapping and Sequencing the Human Genome - NCBI BookshelfAll living organisms are composed of cells, each no wider than a human hair. Each of our cells contains the same complement of DNA constituting the human genome (Figure 1-1.) The DNA sequence of every person's genome is the blueprint for his or her development from a single cell to a complex, integrated organism that is composed of more than 1013 (10 million million) cells. Encoded in the DNA ...
