Human Genome Mapping Project

Diverse and focused approaches are likely to continue to provide complementary benefits. The portfolio of techniques will provide a more effective and comprehensive approach to the identification of an NCE for the number of drug targets being revealed through the Human Genome Mapping Project. 

The National Academy of Sciences il. S.i endorsed a massive national effort to map and sequence the human genome The project target—to produce genetic and physical maps of increasing resolution, with a fully detailed map of the chromosomes—the project to he completed within a decade and ai a cost estimated to be S3 billion,... 

Radiation hybrid maps provide an intermediate level of resolution between linkage and physical maps. Therefore, they are helpful for sequence alignment and will aid in completion of the human genome sequencing project. Three human whole-genome panels have been prepared with different levels of X-irradiation and are available for... 

Another completely computer-dependent endeavour is the Human Genome Project, an international research effort to sequence and map all of the...
