HHMI's BioInteractive - What Is The Human Genome Project?
The human genome sequence information, although not yet complete, is already being used to increase our understanding of human biology.
http://www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/genomics/poster_a1.html

Extractions: Related Stories: What is chemical genetics? What is bioinformatics? What have we learned so far? One of the most surprising findings gleaned from the working sequence is that there are 30,000 to 40,000 human genes, a significantly smaller number than scientists had previously estimated. However, the numbers may be revised as more analyses are performed. Read more... What is the Human Genome Project? The project is coordinated in the United States by the National Human Genome Research Institute at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland, and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Other participating countries include the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, and China. All sequence information generated through the Human Genome Project is deposited immediately in public databases that are available on the Internet for anyone to see and use. Eric Lander The human genome sequence information, although not yet complete, is already being used to increase our understanding of human biology. In the future, scientists hope to apply it to providing better medical treatments. For example, Stuart Schreiber at Harvard University is using genome sequence information to help identify gene products potentially relevant to different diseases and to design small molecules that block or in some way change the function of these proteins.
Commons-blog: More Of The Human Genome Added To The Public Domain

http://www.info-commons.org/blog/archives/000540.html

Extractions: Main From Celera Genomics Corp. , the for-profit company that sequenced the human genone simultaneously with the government-funded Human Genome Project , has stopped selling subscriptions for access to its sequence/data and would donate the data to the National Center for Biotechnology Information. According to the New York Times ... Celera's effort to become the "Bloomberg of biology" by selling its data faltered quickly because the public project was offering much the same information to scientists free of charge. In 2002, Celera ousted Dr. Venter, de-emphasized the information business and began trying to develop drugs instead. BusinessWeek reports that: After July 1, Celera and Applied Biosystems will donate about 30 billion base pairs of DNA from the company's research on the human, mouse and rat genomes. Much of the human data will duplicate information already in the public domain, but Gilbert said it will help scientists validate that data. The mouse research includes data on four strains of mice not included in the public database, Gilbert said. J. Craig Venter

http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2004/06/29/bioinformatics.html

Extractions: The complete DNA sequence of the Human Genome is a remarkable achievement for molecular biology and represents the work of many people in a number of large sequencing centers. Far from resting on their laurels, those centers have gone on to sequence the genomes of the mouse, rat, pufferfish, zebrafish, chicken, chimpanzee ... you name it they're sequencing it. Why this drive to sequence every animal in the zoo? Do we really care about the genetics of pufferfish? In isolation, not so much, but comparisons with the other genomes yield tremendous insights into the genes that are essential for life and those that define the species. They reveal the mechanisms of evolution and the hidden mechanisms of gene regulation. This article will give a brief introduction to comparative genomics and will show you how to start exploring this treasure trove of data.

Extractions: tools for exploring the sequence Welcome! Explore this site for information about the Human Genome Project (1990-2003). C ompleted in 2003, the Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health. During the early years of the HGP, the Wellcome Trust (U.K.) became a major partner; additional contributions came from Japan, France, Germany, China, and others. See our history page for more information. Project goals were to identify all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA, determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA, store this information in databases, improve tools for data analysis, transfer related technologies to the private sector, and address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project.

The Human Transcript Map
A Gene Map of the human Genome. An update to this work has been released. See GeneMap 99. The human Genome Project is expected to produce a sequence of DNA
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/SCIENCE96/

Extractions: See GeneMap'99 T he Human Genome Project is expected to produce a sequence of DNA representing the functional blueprint and evolutionary history of the human species. However, only about 3% of this sequence is thought to specify the portions of our 50,000 to 100,000 genes that encode proteins. Thus an important part of basic and applied genomics is to identify and localize these genes in a process known as transcript mapping. When genes are expressed, their sequences are first converted into messenger RNA transcripts, which can be isolated in the form of complementary DNAs (cDNAs). Approximately half of all human genes had been sampled as of 15 June, 1996. A small portion of each cDNA sequence is all that is needed to develop unique gene markers, known as sequence tagged sites or STSs, which can be detected in chromosomal DNA by assays based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). To construct a transcript map, cDNA sequences from a master catalog of human genes were distributed to mapping laboratories in North America, Europe, and Japan. These cDNAs were converted to STSs and their physical locations on chromosomes determined on one of two radiation hybrid (RH) panels or a yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) library containing human genomic DNA. This mapping data was integrated relative to the human genetic map and then cross-referenced to cytogenetic band maps of the chromosomes. (Further details are available in the accompanying article in the 25 October issue of SCIENCE).

http://www-bio.llnl.gov/bbrp/genome/genome.html

Extractions: In the past two years, the goals of the Human Genome Center have undergone a dramatic evolution. This change is the result of several factors both intrinsic and extrinsic to the Human Genome Initiative. They include: 1) the successful completion of the first phase goal of the Center, namely a high-resolution, sequence-ready map of human chromosome 19; 2) advances in DNA sequencing that allowed us to accelerate scaling this operation; 3) the development of a strategic plan for the Biology and Biotechnology Research Program which integrates our resources and strengths in genomics with programs in DNA repair, individual susceptibility, structural biology, and microbial biotechnology; and 4) the formation of a Joint Genome Institute for the Department of Energy with its three Genome Centers at Livermore, Berkeley, and Los Alamos as anchors. In addition to genomic sequence, over 50 complementary DNA clones (cDNAs) from genes on human chromosome 19 were fully sequenced and submitted to public sequence databases. We have expanded the basis of the LLNL-based I.M.A.G.E. Consortium, an effort to characterize the transcribed human genome, through interactions with numerous collaborators (in particular, Washington University - Merck) such that the clone collection is now the largest public collection of sequenced cDNA clones, with over 500,000 arrayed clones, over 500,000 sequences in public databases, and over 15,000 mapped cDNAs.
