Human genome project

HUMAN GENOME PROJECT: Human genome project (HGP) was an international scientific research project which got successfully completed in the year 2003 by sequencing the entire human genome of 3.3 billion base pairs. The HGP led to the growth of bioinformatics which is a vast field of research. The successful sequencing of the human genome could solve the mystery of many disorders in humans and gave us a way to cope up with them. GOALS OF THE HUMAN GENOME PROJECT: #Optimization of the data analysis. #Sequencing the entire genome. #Identification of the complete human genome. #Creating genome sequence databases to store the data. #Taking care of the legal, ethical and social issues that the project may pose. APPLICATIONS OF HGP: *As the goals of the human genome project were achieved, it led to great advancement in research. Today, if any disease arises due to some alteration in a certain gene, then it could be traced and compared to the genome database that we already have. In this way, a more rational step could be taken to deal with the problem and can be fixed with more ease. *This project has opened up new horizons which can be learned in much detail with our expert faculty.
