Description

One of the most wondrous revelations of the field of genomics is that we humans have a genetic plan that is remarkably similar to that of other species. Our genes are so similar to those of yeast, fruit flies, nematode worms, & mice that in some cases human genes can be substituted for theirs & work just as well. Papers: discovering what the genes in a living cell do; rewards from our similarity to fruit flies; the first animal to have its entire genome sequenced: C. elegans; treasures await those who study our closest relative among model organisms: the mouse; shuttling between species to make sense of the human genome; & human disease genes that are found in flies, worms, & yeast.
