Industry:Biology
Collective name for several projects begun in 1986 by DOE to create an ordered set of DNA segments from known chromosomal locations, develop new computational methods for analyzing genetic map and DNA sequence data, and develop new techniques and instruments for detecting and analyzing DNA. This DOE initiative is now known as the Human Genome Program. The joint national effort, led by DOE and NIH, is known as the Human Genome Project..
Industry:Biology
Formerly titled Human Genome Initiative.

Industry:Biology
The process of joining two complementary strands of DNA or one each of DNA and RNA to form a double-stranded molecule..
Industry:Biology
DNA originating outside an organism that has been introducted into the organism..
Industry:Biology
High-quality, low error, gap-free DNA sequence of the human genome. Achieving this ultimate 2003 HGP goal requires additional sequencing to close gaps, reduce ambiguities, and allow for only a single error every 10,000 bases, the agreed-upon standard for HGP finished sequence.
See also: sequencing, draft sequence.
Industry:Biology
Many DNA sequences carry long stretches of repeated G and C which often indicate a gene-rich region..
