pd6+Human+Genome+Project

=**Human Genome Project(overview)**=
 * It's a publicly funded scientific research to seqeunce and determine all the enetire human genome, to determine the sequence of the 3 billion DNA chemical base pairs and address ELSI. These information are to be stored in databases to be used for research. The knowledge gained gives a big impact on medical, biotechnology and life sciences field. It gives us a basis on diseases and their possible cures, treatments and even prevention. It allowed scientists to sequence bacteria that is useful in energy production, toxic waste reduction and industrial processing.**

**What is a genome?**

 * A genome is an organism's genetic material. The 1% of our genes that are active are the very reason why the HGP is very important. This 1% is the gene that causes diseases. If we gain enough knowledge about the genome, we would be able to discover diseases, the causes of these diseases and their treatment. However, the human genome is too complex that finding for the 1% would take 13 years.**
