Abstract

The objective of the Human Genome Project is to understand the genetic makeup of the human species, the project has also focused on several other nonhuman organisms such as E. coli, the fruit fly, and the laboratory mouse. It remains one of the largest single investigative projects in modern science. The mapping of human genes is an important step in the development of medicines and other aspects of health care. The project that has identified and located all of the genes in human DNA, and determined the sequences of the chemical bases that make up human DNA. This information is stored in databases. A four billion-dollar program known as the Human Genome Project has been center of attention in scientific research.
