12 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 12 The Human Genome Project (HGP) endeavored to map the human genome down to the nucleotide (or base pair) level and to identify all the genes present in it. 1. The HGP was formally founded in 1990 by the United States Department of Energy and the U.S. National Institutes of Health, and was expected to take 15 years. Costs: $3 billion an identical quest was initiated separately with private venture capital by a company called Celera Genomics (founded by Craig Venter). Costs: $300 million of private research funding). 3. The completion of the human DNA sequence in the spring of 2003 coincided with the 50th anniversary of Watson and Crick's description of the fundamental structure of DNA.

15 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 15 Today: Deep sequencing technology can generate 500 million (5 x 10 8!!) bp in a normal 10 hour run on a single sequencing unit. This means you can analyse your genome in less than a week. Details from Victor Sourjik
16 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 16 Sequence Your Genome for Only $5,000 Mountain View, CA (OBBeC) - Complete Genomics, a third-generation human genome sequencing company, has announced its launch as the world's first provider of large-scale human genome sequencing services. Starting next spring the company will be offering a complete human genome sequencing services to pharmaceut and biotechnology companies as well as other medical researchers that were previously priced out of the marke By offering a sequencing service instead of following the traditional instrument sales model, Complete Genomics relieving its customers of operational, computational and capital purchase burdens, allowing them to focus their resources on scientific discovery. "We will be the first company to sequence complete human genomes for less than $1,000 in material costs," said Dr. Clifford Reid, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Complete Genomics. "This breakthrough materials cost, combined with our low per-genome instrument, labour and overhead costs, will allow us to offer complete human genomes for just $5,000 in Q " "This $5,000 price point, combined with the scale of our sequencing centre, will dramatically increase the availability and affordability of human genome sequencing. For the first time, our customers can conduct systematic studies of the genetic basis of disease and drug response. Our sequencing services will be one of the core enablers of the impending revolution in personalized medicine," Reid added.
17 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 17 A complete Neandertal mitochondrial genome sequence determined by high-throughput sequencing Cell Aug 8;134(3): Svante Pääbo and colleagues A complete mitochondrial (mt) genome sequence was reconstructed from a 38,000 year-old Neandertal individual with 8341 mtdna sequences identified among 4.8 Gb of DNA generated from approximately 0.3 g of bone. Analysis of the assembled sequence unequivocally establishes that the Neandertal mtdna falls outside the variation of extant human mtdnas, and allows an estimate of the divergence date between the two mtdna lineages of 660,000 +/- 140,000 years. Of the 13 proteins encoded in the mtdna, subunit 2 of cytochrome c oxidase of the mitochondrial electron transport chain has experienced the largest number of amino acid substitutions in human ancestors since the separation from Neandertals. There is evidence that purifying selection in the Neandertal mtdna was reduced compared with other primate lineages, suggesting that the effective population size of Neandertals was small.

What Are Pseudogenes? Pseudogenes are genomic DNA sequences similar to normal genes but are not expressed into functional proteins; they are regarded as defunct relatives of functional genes. Open Reading Frame (ORF): Open Reading Frame is a stretch of DNA of at least 100 codons starting with an ATG start codon and ending with a stop codon (TGA/TAA/TAG). An ORFs has the potential to encode a protein.

In human Chr. 22, the short (p) arm is e.g. heterochromatin, which comes in short, repetitive sequence Elements. Figure 4-15 Molecular Biology of the Cell ( Garland Science 2008)
23 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 23 A good 20% of DNA is assigned to protein coding genes, only 1.5% in exonic sequences. More than 50% is found in different kinds of repeats. Short/Long Interspersed elements (S/LINEs) Figure 4-17 Molecular Biology of the Cell ( Garland Science 2008)

26 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 26 Of the ca. 3.2 x 10 9 bp of the human genome, a marginal but essential part (ca. 1.7 x 10 4 ) are encoded on mitochondrial DNA. Replication of the mitochondrial DNA works via a separate ( bacterial ) replication system. The Mitochondrial Genome Mitochondrial DNA in most verterates (incl. Humans) is inherited maternally. Due to the production of ROS in mitochondria, mtdna is often damaged and mutated. Many human diseases occur as a consequence of mtdna mutations.

28 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 28 Faithful segregation of sister chromatids after replication is essential for the maintenance of genome stability. Chromosomes are highly condensed in metaphase in order to be separated by the mitotic spindle. The cell cycle control machinery ensures correct timing of events and their proper execution. Figure 4-19 Molecular Biology of the Cell ( Garland Science 2008)
29 Zyklusvorlesung Molekularbiologie WS 2009/10 Oliver Gruß, Seite 29 Chromosomes need basic elements in order to be stably inherited. Replication starts at replications origins, while spindle microtubules attach on kinetochores assembled on centromeric DNA. The special telomere structure ensures homeostasis of chromosome length.
