    Abstract

    We have begun a joint program as part of a coordinated international effort to determine a complete human genome sequence. Our strategy is to map large-insert bacterial clones and to sequence each clone by a random shotgun approach followed by directed finishing. As of September 1998, we have identified the map positions of bacterial clones covering approximately 860 Mb for sequencing and completed >98 Mb ( approximately 3.3%) of the human genome sequence. Our progress and sequencing data can be accessed via the World Wide Web (http://webace.sanger.ac.uk/HGP/ or http://genome.wustl.edu/gsc/).

      • Related Citations
        Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.
      • Compound (MeSH Keyword)
        PubChem chemical compound records that are classified under the same Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) controlled vocabulary as the current articles.
      • Gene
        Gene records that cite the current articles. Citations in Gene are added manually by NCBI or imported from outside public resources.
      • Nucleotide
        Primary database (GenBank) nucleotide records reported in the current articles as well as Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that include the articles as references.
      • Nucleotide (RefSeq)
        NCBI nucleotide Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.
      • Nucleotide (Weighted)
        Nucleotide records associated with the current articles through the Gene database. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.
      • Protein (RefSeq)
        NCBI protein Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.

      • Substance (MeSH Keyword)
        PubChem chemical substance (submitted) records that are classified under the same Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) controlled vocabulary as the current articles.
      • Taxonomy via GenBank
        Taxonomy records associated with the current articles through taxonomic information on related molecular database records (Nucleotide, Protein, Gene, SNP, Structure).
      • Protein
        Protein translation features of primary database (GenBank) nucleotide records reported in the current articles as well as Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that include the articles as references.
      • GEO Profiles
        Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) Profiles of molecular abundance data. The current articles are references on the Gene record associated with the GEO profile.
