There are 23 chromosomal pairs in the human genome. There are an estimated 20,000-25,000 genes in the human genome. According to an article published by Mihaela Pertea and Steven L Salzberg (of the University of Maryland and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, respectively), there are approximately 22,333 genes in the human genome.1

What else can I help you with?
What is the chemical structure in the human genes?
DNA
In 2003 what was achieved by the human genome project?
The human genome project began in 1990, and this project was to find the complete sequence of genes in a human. The goal of this project was to identify all genes in the human body, this meant as much as mapping out 3 billion base pairs of nucleotides in our DNA. It was completed in 2003 and this now allows for further development in biological diseases and also gives us a thorough analysis in human Biology.
What are characteristics affected by?
Just about ALL human (and living organism) characteristics are affected by genes.
Why can Bacteria are able to produce human proteins?
They reproduce quickly, so they often produce much of the desired protein in a short time.
How is the human genome project related to gene therapy?
The Human Genome Projects' main goal was to map, sequence and organize all the genes in the human genome, and by accomplishing just that it was able to provide enough information for improving human health through gene therapy which basically replaced poor unhealthy genes with healthy ones.
