Document Summary

Defined as the study of genes and their functions and related (cid:1) techniques (cid:1) Cell is arrested at metaphase chromosomes most compact stained with dye to produce banding pattern. If you arrest a cell at metaphase, the chromosomes are dense and can be identified under the microscope (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) Identify and describe large chromosomal abnormalities (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) Approximate size of the genome (3 billion base pairs) known. The sequence of a number of genes and genomic regions known (cid:1) Human genome project goal sequence and characterize the human genome (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) Refine sequencing techniques technology based (develop necessary techniques) late stages (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) Thought human genome was far to complete to sequence. Genes and genome size (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) 2001: sequence published is a draft sequence large amounts of sequence missing.
