Future Challenges: what we still don’t know
A genome is an organism’s
complete set of DNA, including all
of its genes.
Each genome contains all of the
information needed to build and
maintain that organism.
The genome includes both the genes
and the non-coding sequence of
DNA/RNA.

Human genome consists information of 23
chromosome (22Autosomes +1X chromosome)
Human genome contains over 3 billion
nucleotide pair, about 30,000 genes & 3000
bases.
Only 3% of genome codes for amino acid
sequence of polypeptide .
Only 0.2% of base pair is different in
individual.
Structure of chromosome 1
(Has largest genes i.e.,
2968genes)
Y chromosome has lowest
genes(i.e., 231)
