That's why the Human Genome Project is so important. The goal, says Collins, director of the National Center for Human Genome Research, is to find by the year 2005 not just the location of 100,000 or so genes, but the exact sequence of their constituent chemical parts. If the human genome is an encyclopedia divided into 23 "chapters" (chromosome pairs), each gene "sentence" is composed of three-letter "words," which are in turn spelled by four molecular "letters" called nucleotides -- adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T). By scanning a data base containing the complete sequence...
