Human Genome Project History
Human Genome Project (HGP) History (a personal account). DOE History of the Human Genome Project. In the process, the internet has played a huge role in the HGP.
http://arep.med.harvard.edu/gmc/HGP.html

Extractions: The HGP "began" at three meetings in 1984-5: Alta UT, Santa Cruz Ca, and Santa Fe, NM. I was the only person present at all three meetings. Initially stimulated by RNA sequencing by Jack Nichols at Duke, I began dreaming of something like a genome project when Wally Gilbert gave a seminar at Duke in 1976 on a new DNA sequencing method (published in 1977). I got serious about the mammalian genome-scale issues while researching our 1984 "Genomic sequencing" paper. The Alta Summit, December 1984 (Genomics, Oct 1989, by Robert Cook-Deegan) Delehanty J, White RL, Mendelsohn ML. Mutat Res 1986 May;167(3):215-32. Approaches to determining mutation rates in human DNA. DOE launched its "Human Genome Initiative" in 1986. The "OHER Research in Progress: FY 1988" lists three sequencing technology "offsite contractors": Richardson (Harvard), Church (Harvard), and Gesteland/White (U. Utah). The NIH and other agencies became involved soon thereafter. I helped establish three of the first NIH HGP centers in 1990: Stanford, MIT , and CRI (aka Genome Therapeutics Corp.

Extractions: From a scientific viewpoint, the Human Genome Project is actually not in the dock, nor even under reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing. Overwhelmingly, it will prove of benefit to humanity. However, from legal, ethical and other societal points of view, there are many problems already being considered by bioethicists, philosophers, religious experts, lawyers and others in dialogue with scientists. MJA Manageable problems More difficult problems The big ones Public debate ... More articles on Genetics I have just returned from meetings of the Ethics Committee of the Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) established by leading genome scientists in 1989 to promote international collaboration in the Human Genome Project (HGP) in London, and of the International Bioethics Committee (IBC) of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) in Quito, Ecuador. At international meetings such as these, in national bodies, in lawmaking institutions and universities, a lot of minds are identifying the chief problems of the HGP. Some of these problems are comparatively straightforward. Others are complex and fundamental. Manageable problems Privacy and confidentiality: Patient confidentiality has long been fundamental to the healthcare professions, having its roots in rules even older than the Hippocratic Oath. However, when a disorder is the result of a genetic characteristic, is the "patient" solely the individual, or does the entire family have rights? Are there circumstances in which family members should be entitled, by law, to override an individual's desire for privacy to obtain information relevant to genetic conditions that may also affect them? Should a patient have a right

Extractions: Genetics is becoming a factor in the diagnosis and treatment of all kinds of disorders. While aware of medical genetics' growing importance, many people, both doctors and patients, feel it is difficult to keep pace with this rapidly advancing area. Famed geneticist, Dr. Jim Lupski, outlines the basic terrain of the genome project and introduces some of its issues and vocabulary. Birth defects are the leading cause of death among infants (0-364 days old). By age 25, eight percent of liveborns will be diagnosed with a disorder that has a major genetic component. The goals of the human genome project are to identify all genes in the human genome, determine their structure and function and determine their involvement in human disease. Let's see if we can walk through some of the basic concepts and terminology.

Extractions: Center for Biomolecular Science and Engineering (CBSE) director and HHMI investigator David Haussler leads a team of engineers and scientists at UCSC who are assembling and analyzing the human genome . The CBSE is one of 19 centers around the world that make up the International Human Genome Mapping Consortium, a crucial component of the Human Genome Project. The Human Genome Project is an international effort begun in 1990 to determine the sequence of the approximately 3.2 billion subunits that make up our DNA. The human genome is our DNA "blueprint," the chemical code that instructs our cells to produce the proteins that not only give us our physical attributes, but also contribute to many of our less tangible features, such as behavior, learning and predisposition to disease. In the past 10 years, genome centers all over the world generated the raw sequence information by determining the sequence of the DNA subunits (bases) of small fragments of human DNA. Jim Kent , a Reseach Scientist at UCSC and a member of the UCSC human genome team , wrote a program that assembled the sequenced fragments , creating a working draft sequence that spanned all 23 human chromosomes. UCSC was the first site to

Extractions: Begin the lesson by asking students what they know about genes. Explain to students that genes are made up of double strands of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA. The DNA provides the genetic instructions for everything a cell does. In particular, the sequence of the subunits of DNA, called bases, plays a part in determining whether a person will get sick and how well that person will respond to medication. To understand how the body works as well as diseases and treatments, scientists must understand the human genome, or the complete set of genetic instructions. To do so, they are mapping these instructions in the Human Genome Project, or HGP. Share the following information about the HGP with the students

http://www.hhmi.org/genetictrail/c100.html

Extractions: "All human disease is genetic in origin,'' Nobel laureate Paul Berg of Stanford University told a cancer symposium a few years ago. Berg was exaggerating, but only slightly. It has become increasingly evident that virtually all human afflictions, from cancer to psychiatric disorders and susceptibility to infection, are rooted in our genes. "What we need to do now is find those genes," says James Watson, who shared a Nobel Prize for deciphering the structure of DNA Mapping the human genome actually began in 1911, when the gene responsible for red-green color blindness was assigned to the X chromosome Y chromosome Some other disorders that affect only males were likewise mapped to the X chromosome, but the other 22 pairs of chromosomes remained virtually uncharted until the late 1960s. At that time, biologists fused human and mouse cells to create hybrid cells and found that these uneasy hybrids cast off their human chromosomes until only one or a few of the human chromosomes remained. Any recognizable human proteins found in such cells would therefore have to be produced by genes located on the remaining human chromosomes. Narrowing down the number of chromosomes in this fashion allowed scientists to assign about 100 genes to specific chromosomes.

Extractions: Search BLAST Browse GO ... Home The Japanese pufferfish Fugu rubripes has the shortest known genome of any vertebrate species. As vertebrates, fish and humans share not only the defining characteristic of a backbone, but also many basic anatomical and physiological similarities. The compact Fugu genome contains the same basic vertebrate blueprint as the human genome in a sequence seven times shorter. This difference is primarily due to the scarcity in Fugu of the large repeat-filled tracts that litter the human genome. The relative compactness of the Fugu genome simplifies the detection and analysis of both gene sequences and gene regulatory elements. "Blue fish," oil painting by Leila Hornick The Fugu Genome Project was initiated in 1989 in Cambridge by Sydney Brenner and his colleagues Greg Elgar, Sam Aparicio, and Byrappa Venkatesh. With the impending completion of the Human Genome Project the value of the Fugu genome for comparative purposes was noted and in November 2000 the International Fugu Genome Consortium was formed, headed by the Joint Genome Institute, IMCB Singapore, and the HGMP Cambridge.

http://www.yourgenome.org/intermediate/hgp/

Extractions: The Human Genome Project is an immense enterprise. The idea of sequencing the entire human genome was first proposed by biomedical researchers in the mid-1980s, only a few years after the Sanger method of sequencing DNA had been developed. Two organizations in the United States took up these proposals: the first organization was the Department of Energy, which was interested in finding out more about the damage caused to DNA by radiation. The second was the National Institutes of Health, which receives money from the US government to give to medical research projects. By October 1990, these two organizations had put together a plan to begin sequencing the human genome . Work in the United Kingdom focused initally on mapping the human genome but, in 1992, the Wellcome Trust and the Medical Research Council agreed to fund sequencing on a larger scale. This led to the establishment of the Sanger Centre. last modified : Wed Aug 29 15:15:32 2001 webmaster@yourgenome.org
