Description
The Human Genome: The Complete Nucleic Acid Sequence for Human DNA Edited by Paul F. Kisak The human genome is the complete set of nucleic acid sequence for humans, encoded as DNA within the 23 chromosome pairs in cell nuclei and in a small DNA molecule found within individual mitochondria. This comprehensive collection includes both protein-coding DNA genes and noncoding DNA. The Human Genome Project produced the first complete sequences of individual human genomes, with the first draft sequence and initial analysis being published on February 12, 2001. Since then, thousands of human genomes have been completely sequenced, and many more have been mapped at lower levels of resolution. The resulting data are used worldwide in biomedical science, anthropology, forensics, and other branches of science. This book provides a detailed overview of the human genome, including its structure, function, and significance in understanding human biology and disease. With an estimated 20,000-25,000 human protein-coding genes, this comprehensive resource is essential for anyone interested in genetics, genomics, or biomedical research.
