A WEALTH OF EXPLORATION FOCUSED ON THE HUMAN GENOME PROJECT

Abstract

Human Genome Project (HGP), with its extensive list of protein-coding genes, spurred a new era of elucidating the role of the non-coding component of the genome and paved the way for therapeutic advances. Crucially, as researchers mapped the interactions between cellular interactions, the findings track the creation of a system-level view of biology alongside the traditional single-gene perspective.
