The Human Genome Project:
- The
National Human Genome Research Institute:
- The National Institute of Health's site that gives you all the information you could ever want or need.
- NCBI
Gene Map:
- This is a great site for searching the human genome. Not only can you search for characteristics and known disease locations, but you can also look at the actual DNA sequence.
- DOE
Human Genome Research:
- This site is provided by the United States Department Of Energy (DOE) and is nice if you have any questions about the human genome project.
- Joint
Genome Institute:
- Supported by the University of California system, this is an excellent place to look if you have questions about anything on Chromosomes 5, 16, 19, or the Mouse chromosome. They also have diagrams of the different segments and the markers that join them together.
These pages are a compilation of information relating to Biotechnology. I have included links to other pages that are far more authoritative than mine. Some words that I might use to explain biotechnology: DNA, Genetics, Pharmaceuticals, Biopharmaceuticals, Ethics, Proteins, Therapeutics, Medicine, Microbiology. While biotech products can be used in almost any application, I prefer to focus on those areas relating to health and safety. More specifically, the use of biotechnology to create therapeutic proteins, that help to fight or eliminate specific diseases, as well as the creation of anti-bacterial or anti-viral medications.
