Conclusion:
Human genome Project is a
valid project useful for
detection of genomics and
the genetic material
Project:
started in 1990
13 years project
coordinated by US
Department of energy
Objective
Identification of a gene
gene mapping
to study 3 billion
of chemical units
Drawbacks:
May cause discrimination
among people due to
differentiation in genome.
In Genetic information
Findings:
There are about 2000
pairs of gene in humans
only 7% of protein family
are specific to Vertebrates
Genomics
genetic material in all living
organisms include a gene and
a non-coding DNA/RNA
Techniques
Karyotyping:
Process of separation of
complete set of chromosomes
from a cell
aligning the chromosome
by Karyogram/ Idiogram
Idiogram - diagrammatic
representation of a chromosome
Chromosomes are classified
on length, number, arms,
ratio & secondary constrictions
