HUMAN GENOME PROJEC information

 HUMAN GENOME PROJECT

GENOME IS HAPLOID SET OF CHROMOSOME OF AN ORGANISM SO HUMAN GENOME IS 23PAIRS

HUMAN GENOME PROJECT;1990-2003 (13 YEARS)

OBJECTIVE-

        IDENTIFYING THE SEQUENCE OF NUCLEOTIDES AND MAPPING OF ALL GENES IN HUMAN

  

THE INFORMATION COLLECTED IS STORED IN DATABASE(BIO-INFORMATIC)

   BY STORING THIS DATA IT IMPROVES DATA ANALYSIS THIS TECHNIQUE CAN BE ADOPTED BY THE INFORMATION WHICH WILL BE HELP FULL IN THE FIELD OF BIOTECHNOLOGY. THIS IS ALSO HELP FULL IN STUDYING GENETIC DISEASES AND DIAGNOSIS.

 SALIENT FEATURES OF HUMAN GENOME PROJECT

1)HUMAN GENOME HAS 3164.7MILLION NUCLEOTIDE S.

 2)AVERAGE GENES CONTAIN 3000 BASE PAIRS.

 3)TOTAL NO OF GENE 30,000.

4)IN HUMANS 99.9 PRESENT GENE IN US ARE UNIQUE BUT REST 0.1% MAKE US DIFFERENT

5)THE FUNCTIONS OF 50% GENE ARE UNKNOWN WHICH ARE DISCOVERED

6)LESS THAN 2% GENE CODE FOR PROTEIN SYNTHESIS

7)REPEATED SEQUENCE MAKE LARGE PORTION OF HUMAN GENOME

8)CHROMOSOME I HAS MOST GENE AND CHROMOSOME Y HAS FEW GENE

9)dystrophin X CHROMOSOME  IS THE LARGEST KNOWN GENE.

THERE IS A METHOD CALLED DNA FINGERPRINTING 

IN THAT METHOD THE INDIVIDUAL GENE IS FIND BY LOCKING FROM A SAMPLE OF GENES (0.1% GENE IS FOUND UNIQUE FROM OTHERS ) IS IS USED TO SOLVE CRIMINAL CASES.
