The Human Genome Project (HGP) Links

Human Genome Project (HGP) is an international cooperative effort, which began in October, 1990, to sequence the entire human genome of 3 billion base pairs DNA. The primary database locations where these sequences are organized and archived are the GenBank at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, Maryland, and the EMBL Sequence Database at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg. These databanks regularly exchange newly discovered sequences and make them accessible to the public all over the world via the Internet.
