Human Genome Project

An international research effort to map and identify the role of all genes in the human genome.

Human Genome Project [hu´man je´nōm]

an international effort, begun in the late 1980s, for mapping the sequence and analyzing the structure of all the DNA in the human genome. It is producing a very large amount of genetic information. Ethics has been a major concern in all aspects of the project, including development, design, and implementation. Ethical use of the information is concerned with the control, diffusion, and use within the context of a free market economy.

human genome project,

n a federally sponsored research project to identify and map the entire gene pool.

Human Genome Project

A multinational collaborative effort to sequence–map all 80,000+ genes and 3 x 109 nucleotides of a haploid set of the human genome, begun in 1986 and completed in 2002 at a total cost of US $3 x 109. Cf Bioinformatics, Genomics, Junk DNA, Rough draft, Sequencers.
