they can see where the flawed gene is, and by modifying it or identifying it warn of the possibilities or probabilities of ataxia developing
The FHCRC Dog Genome Project has moved from Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center to the National Human Genome Research Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland. Our work continues on mapping and characterizing disease genes in dogs. If you have any questions or would like to participate in one of our genetic studies, contact us at: dog_genome@mail.nih.gov. The project name has changed to NHGRI Dog Genome Project, and will be found at http://research.nhgri.nih.gov/dog_genome/.
My father studies genetics. I am getting a major in Genetics.
Answer to the respective Question is that Human genome is very much similar to these rodents and from the both Rat genome is very close to humans than mouse . Therefore, due to genome closeness permits scientists to induce disease in them and study them and understand for the New drug development. Regards Mohit kwatra

The complete collection of DNA fragments from an organism is called the genome. This has an important use in DNA technology.
to identify the 3 billion genes that comprise the human genome
To identify every human gene.<==== nova net answer.
There are many things that can be learned by knowing your genome. The genome project can identify ones genetic makeup and predisposition for diseases as well as natural changes like obesity and baldness.
to identify every human gene
40,000 genes
The Human Genome Project.
genome
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.
The Human Genome Project was the effort to identify the 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA. Once they had been identified they sequenced the 3 billion chemical base pairs that are present in human DNA, and stored this information in databases. This was a 13-year project that was completed in 2003. The Human Genome Project allowed scientists to better pinpoint genetic diseases and will help to find cures for these disorders.
genome
This is the Human Genome Project. It was started in 1990 with the main goal being to determine the sequence of the base pairs which make up DNA, and to identify and map the thousands of genes of the human genome. It was completed in 2003. About 8% of the total genome remains unsequenced, because they did not study the entire DNA found in human cells.
