A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes, which are made up of DNA, act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. The Human Genome Project has estimated that humans have between 20,000 and 25,000 genes. [Pg.14]

The human genome contains about 3.2 billion base pairs. If the sequence were to be published employing standard type size, it would occupy about 75,000 pages of the New York Times. The human genome sequence can be accessed at http //genome.ucsc.edu. [Pg.180]
