On February 12, 2001, scientists published the first map of the human genome
On February 12, 2001 (January 20, 2001 lunar calendar), scientists announced the map of the human genome for the first time. On November 24, 2006, the international team of scientists announced the new map of the human genome. On February 12, 2001, the international human genome, which was jointly participated by scientists from six countries, announced the map of the human genome and the preliminary analysis results. This research project, known as the "moon landing project" of life science, has made significant progress and laid a solid foundation for human beings to uncover their own mysteries. The United States, Britain, France, Germany, and China have successively participated in the international cooperation on the large-scale sequencing of 23 pairs of chromosome DNA in the human genome, and finally drew an accurate map of the human genome similar to the periodic table of chemical elements. After preliminary interpretation, scientists have found that the human genome contains 30,000 protein-coding genes. The human genome contains the genetic information of human birth, old age, illness and death, and deciphering it will bring revolutionary progress to the diagnosis of diseases, the development of new drugs, and the exploration of new therapies. The goal of the Human Genome Project is to uncover the mysteries of life by determining the entire sequence of the human genome and interpreting all its genetic information. However, the life science community has been full of fog, and it will take time for humans to understand the "Book of Life". There is still a long way to go.
