The Human Genome Project, which
sequenced the 3 billion pairs of
nucleotide bases in human DNA, was a piece of cake in
comparison: Epigenetic markers and patterns are different in every tissue type in the human body and also change over time.
However, based on data now available, we see that the
sequence of the 3 billion
nucleotides in any individual genome is unique in
comparison with the
sequence of another individual's genome, while the degree of
sequence similarity between the 3 billion
nucleotides in any two genomes is remarkably high.
Comparison of the structure and
nucleotide sequences of Acks and kakusei cDNAs revealed that the
nucleotide sequences corresponding to +1946 b to +5175 b of Acks cDNA was equivalent to the kakusei cDNA corresponding to the neural activity - inducible transcript (Figure 1A).
Comparisons between the
nucleotide makeup, or
sequence, of particular genes allows scientists to see how closely they are related, and thus, group the organisms accordingly.
Molecular evolutionary analysis of the entire coding
sequence in the eight representative mammalian species: Monotremes (platypus), Marsupials (opossum) and Eutherians (mouse, rat, dog, rhesus monkey, chimpanzee and human), revealed no excessive non-synonymous
nucleotide changes in
comparison with synonymous changes.
