Sequencing the chimpanzee genome: insights into human evolution and disease.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Jan 2003

Olson Maynard V, Varki Ajit

Abstract excerpt

Large-scale sequencing of the chimpanzee genome is now imminent. Beyond the inherent fascination of comparing the sequence of the human genome with that of our closest living relative, this project is likely to yield tangible scientific benefits in two areas. First, the discovery of functionally important mutations that are specific to the human lineage offers a new path towards medical benefits. Second,...
