How do you cite 1000 Genomes?

When citing the 1000 Genomes Project in general please use the final phase 3 paper, A global reference for human genetic variation, The 1000 Genomes Project Consortium, Nature 526, 68-74 (01 October 2015) doi:10.1038/nature15393.

Why is the 1000 Genomes Project important?

The goal of the 1000 Genomes Project is to provide a resource of almost all variants, including SNPs and structural variants, and their haplotype contexts. This resource will allow genome-wide association studies to focus on almost all variants that exist in regions found to be associated with disease.

What is the outcome of the Human Genome Project?

The HGP showed that humans share the majority of their sequence, with short nucleotide polymorphisms contributing diversity. The completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003 lead to many outcomes: Mapping – The number, location, size and sequence of human genes is now established. Screening – This has allowed for the production of specific gene probes to detect sufferers and carriers of genetic diseases.

What is the Human Genome Project completed?

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was declared complete in April 2003. An initial rough draft of the human genome was available in June 2000 and by February 2001 a working draft had been completed and published followed by the final sequencing mapping of the human genome on April 14, 2003.

Why is the Human Genome Project important?

The Human Genome Project is crucial for the further development of gene therapy and the treatment of genetic diseases. The project not only makes it easier for scientists to study the human genome but also makes it easier for doctors to identify and interpret genetic mutations.

What is the entire human genome?

The total length of the human genome is over 3 billion base pairs. The genome is organized into 22 paired chromosomes, plus the X chromosome (one in males, two in females) and, in males only, one Y chromosome . These are all large linear DNA molecules contained within the cell nucleus.
