Genomics

In modern molecular biology and genetics, a genome is the genetic material of an organism.

<section begin=lead />The human genome is the complete set of nucleic acid sequence for humans (Homo sapiens), encoded as DNA within the 23 chromosome pairs in cell nuclei and in a small DNA molecule found within individual mitochondria.

Personal genomics is the branch of genomics concerned with the sequencing and analysis of the genome of an individual.

The human gene Chromosome 3 open reading frame 14 is a gene of uncertain function located at 3p14.

Chemogenomics, or chemical genomics, is the systematic screening of targeted chemical libraries of small molecules against individual drug target families (e.g., GPCRs, nuclear receptors, kinases, proteases, etc.) with the ultimate goal of identification of novel drugs and drug targets.

The National Institute of Genetics ("Japanese Institute of Genetics") is a Japanese institution founded in 1949.

The $1,000 genome refers to an era of predictive and personalized medicine during which the cost of full genome sequencing an individual or patient costs roughly USD $1,000.

Methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP or mDIP) is a large-scale (chromosome- or genome-wide) purification technique in molecular biology that is used to enrich for methylated DNA sequences.

The 100,000 Genomes Project is a UK Government project that is sequencing whole genomes from National Health Service patients.

The 100K Pathogen Genome Project was launched in July 2012 by Bart Weimer (UC Davis) as an academic, public, and private partnership.

Multiple Annealing and Looping Based Amplification Cycles (a.k.a. MALBAC) is a quasilinear whole genome amplification method.
