How long does it take to test for chromosome numbers 7 and 15?
Overview of Chromosome 7 Project Objectives of the project Introduction to human chromosome 7 Progess of the project References ——————————————————————————– OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT The goal of the human genome project is to identify all the genes in the human genome. A complete map of human chromosomes is a crucial component in studying human genetics and biology, and for understanding the normal function of genes as well as disease conditions. The overall objective of our CGAT-funded research program has been to construct a combined physical, genetic, and transcription map of the long arm of chromosome 7 (7q). Our secondary goals are to develop new mapping technologies and to use our mapping data to begin to study disease conditions and the breakpoints in common chromosome rearrangements. The primary strategy of our approach is based on the construction of overlapping contigs of high quality yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clones
