How much of the humane genome is expressed?
It is estimated that about 1-2% of the human genome is actively transcribed and expressed as proteins. However, a larger portion of the genome is transcribed into non-coding RNA, which plays various regulatory roles in the cell.
What percent of the nucleotide bases in the human genome actually carries genetic information?
The nucleotide bases comprise the genetic information, they are the "digits" of the code, they make up the genes. As such your question is meaningless.
The Human Genome Project was created to count what?
Not to count, it is to analyse the sequence of Human DNA. Approximately 3x1000000000 basepairs are making human genome. This project studies the sequence or position of nucleotide bases of DNA molecule.
Why can our eyes only be certain colours?
The colors that can appear within the human genome are regulated by the genes that code for specific colors. The human eye-color is limited by what colors the genes can code for.
What percentage of human DNA is used for coding information for the synthesis of proteins?
There is no single percent number. At any given moment, depending upon your diet (meats, legumes) and pathogenic interaction (viruses), you may have as little as 0.00003% or as much as 0.02%. That sounds like almost nothing, but is really alot if you consider DNA recombination.
What is the Human Genome Project-?
The Human Genome Project is an international effort to map and sequence all the DNA base pairs of the human genome. It's also an effort to identify the all the genes and the protein/trait that they code for in the human genome. ============================================== The Human Genome Project studies the human chromosomes to determines which genes are involved in what aspects of the human body reproduction, growth, functioning, and health intending to produce a map of the DNA structure, what it does, and how.

What has the author James Shreeve written?
James Shreeve has written: 'Gold Code' 'The Genome War' -- subject(s): Human Genome Project
What does the word gene?
A gene is a functional unit on DNA. A gene codes for a protein. Most of the DNA in a genome does not code for protein. These non-coding sequences are thought to provide a sense of stability and integrity to the genome. If a DNA sequence is capable of coding for a functional protein, then it is a gene
How many genes are there in an average human?
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. 22 pairs are homologous (basically same shape) and the last pair is known as the X and Y sex-determining chromosomes. You were correct that 23 come from mom and the other 23 from dad. With regard to the question about genes, scientists finished sequencing the human genome in 2003. They found that the genome contained only 20,000-25,000 genes. You can read more about it if you search for human genome project on the net.

What percent of your DNA doesn't code for any protein?

Who is paying for the human genome project?
Isn't it already done, we watched "cracking the code" in health sci..
What is the relationship of a transcriptome to the genetic code?
A transcriptome is the percentage of the genetic code that is turned into RNA molecules. It transcribes to less than five percent of the genome in humans.
Why can our eyes only be certain colours?
The colors that can appear within the human genome are regulated by the genes that code for specific colors. The human eye-color is limited by what colors the genes can code for.
Why did the genome project start?
The human genome project took so long because the genetic makeup of humans is quite complex. It took scientists from all over the world to crack the code.
