8. The Genomics Revolution SG
The first draft of the human genome was publish February 15 2001; and accomplishment arguably eclipsing the significance of landing on the moon for its broad reaching impact on all of us and our future society. A genome is all the DNA in an organism, including its genes. Genes carry information for making all the proteins required by all organisms. We now know all the genes in humans, mice, dogs, rice plants and many other organisms. We can use this information to compare ourselves to other life on this planet, but also to learn more about how to diagnosis and treat diseases, how to make better crops, and how to treat cancer and other diseases. probably none of us will go to the moon. Knowing all the genes in humans will affect all of us in our lifetime. This lecture also adds to our knowledge about more techniques used in biotechnology, including how DNA, RNA and proteins are detected and analyzed.From:Albert KauschViews:0 0ratingsTime:01:02:58More inEducation
