Area of Science:

  • Human Molecular Genetics
  • Genomics

Background:

  • The 1980s saw the rise of human molecular genetics, prompting large-scale "Genome Projects" to systematically study the human genetic makeup.
  • These projects focused on understanding the human genome through mapping techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the progress and scope of human Genome Projects.
  • To highlight the diverse national policies and funding structures involved.
  • To discuss the implications of Genome Project findings for conventional laboratories.

Main Methods:

  • Genome mapping through family studies utilizing polymorphic markers (genetic mapping).
  • Physical mapping via direct DNA analysis, including fractionation and cloning.
  • Systematic cDNA sequencing, despite limitations in full genome sequencing.

Main Results:

  • Significant advancements in both genetic and physical genome mapping.
  • Widespread adoption of systematic cDNA sequencing.
  • Diverse international participation and varied funding models.

Conclusions:

  • Genome Projects have made substantial progress in mapping the human genome.
  • The findings and methodologies from these projects offer significant utility for traditional research laboratories.
  • Effective integration between Genome Projects and conventional labs is crucial for future scientific advancement.
