Yes, in 1996, with over 5000 gene markers, and over 200 genes shown to be associated with certain diseases. The HUGO (Human Genome Organization) monitors the activities surrounding this.

The complete genome sequence is the classification of an organisms deoxyribonucleic acid sequence in a certain time. The classification of our DNA would help to understand the functions of our body and provide answers to diseases that affect and cause the mutation of the DNA.


Were scientists correct in their estimate of how many genes would be identified during the human genome project Why or why not?

No,the scientists were not correct in their estimate of how many genes would be identified during the human genome project because they had identified an estimated 30,000 genes (instead of the expected 100,000), constituting just 1% of the total human.

If you have an interest in gene sequencing it would be a good idea to go take a medical course. Some of the places to learn would be a local college or a technical school. Might even be able to do it online.


Can you put your genome into the public domain without having it sequenced?

Not clear why you would think your genome is not ALREADY "public domain". It cannot be copyrighted or patented, being comprised of naturally occurring chemicals in a naturally occurring configuration.
