| human genome initiative | <molecular biology> Collective name for several projects begun in 1986 by the Department of Energy to create an ordered set of DNA segments from known chromosomal locations, develop new computational methods for analysing genetic map and DNA sequence data, and develop new techniques and instruments for detecting and analysing DNA. This initiative is now known as the Human Genome Program. The national effort, led by DOE and National Institute of Health, is known as the Human Genome Project. (09 Oct 1997) |
| human genome project | <molecular biology> A worldwide project to determine the DNA sequence of all the DNA in humans, funded primarily by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), the European Commission (EC), and the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. The project will be completed in stages, beginning with a genetic map of man and a sequencing of all human cDNA. As part of the Human Genome Project, the genomes of several other plant and animal models are being studied. (14 Nov 1997) |
