Human Genome Project
(Redirected from Human genome project)
The Human Genome Project (HGP) endeavored to map the human genome down to the nucleotide (or base pair) level and to identify all the genes present in it.

The Human Genome Project is a massive, government-funded project whose goal is to determine the base sequence of all of the human chromosomes.
It would take 200 volumes of 1,000 pages each just to list the letters of the bases.

A surprising finding of the Human Genome Project is that there are far fewer genes that code for proteins in the human genome than there are proteins in the human proteome (~22,000 genes vs ~200,000 proteins).
