Molecular biologists still know so little about the human genome, in fact, that even with some 85% of the sequence published on the HGP's GenBank website for every scientist in the world to see, nobody has even a ballpark figure for how many genes humans have. Before this week...
Given this seemingly overwhelming ignorance, why is everyone making such a fuss? Because laying out the biochemical code for all our genes, however many there turn out to be, and locating them within the 23 chromosomes in the human genome may turn out to be the necessary first step to...
Researchers can use these chips to get a complete picture of genes that are expressed at different times in the life cycle of an animal, revolutionizing a field where genes used to be analyzed one at a time.
According to MacBeath, the Center currently has parts of 40,000 of the estimated 100,000 to 140,000 human genes stored in their freezer.
The availability of the human genome sequence will transform the way that Harvard researchers study the genes that cause disease, and help them gain a new understanding of how genomes are constructed in a comparative perspective.
