Hello james,
The Human Genome Project is an international scientific project started with the aim of identifying all the genes in the human DNA from both a physical and functional perspective.
The features of the Human Genome Project are:
- The human genome has 3164.7 million nucleotide bases.
- The average gene consists of 3000 bases. The largest human being dystrophia has 2.4 million bases.
- The functions of 50% of the genes are not discovered yet.
- Less than 2% of the genes encode proteins.
- There are a large number of repeated sequences in the human genome.
- The maximum genes are present in the chromosome I whereas least are present in chromosome Y.
HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU
GOOD LUCK!
