Important Features of Human Genome:
The Human Genome Project (HGP) involved two major approaches; one approach called as Expressed sequence tags the other one is called sequence annotation.
DNA annotation or genome annotation is the process of
The Human Genome Project was a 13-year-long, publicly funded project initiated in 1990 with the objective of determining the DNA sequence of the entire euchromatic human genome within 15 years.
It was co-ordinated by U. S. Department of energy and National institute of health.
At any given time, approximately 200 labs in the United States were funded by either the National Institutes of Health or the U.S. Department of Energy to support these efforts.
Later on, Welcome trust of U.K becomes the major partner of this project.
