The Human Genome Project is an international scientific research project with the primary aim of determining the sequence of chemical base pairs that make up DNA and identify and map the approximately 20000-25000 genes in the human genome from a physical standpoint and functional. The human genome consists of approximately 30,000 genes. Humans have a similar number of nitrogen bases - about 3 million and about 3,000 megabases - similar to that of other vertebrates such as rats and others are also affected. In addition to protein-coding genes, the human genome contains thousands of RNA genes, whose transcription reproduces transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), microRNA (miRNA), or other non-coding RNA genes. The ribosomal RNA and transfer are essential in the formation of ribosomes and translation of proteins.
