Technician with DNA sequencers at Celera Genomics
DNA sequencers. Technician with DNA sequencers used in human genome research at Celera Genomics, Maryland, USA, a rival to the Human Genome Project. Celera intends to sequence every human gene by 2001. Genes are lengths of DNA (deoxyribo- nucleic acid) which perform specific tasks within an organism. Human DNA has over 100, 000 genes, comprising over 3 billion base pairs. Celera sequences tiny fragments of DNA and uses super- computers to put the pieces together. This is a cruder but faster method than that used by the publicly-funded Human Genome Project. The complete human genome map will allow improved drug design and a greater understanding of genetic diseases

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a technician diligently working with DNA sequencers at Celera Genomics, located in Maryland, USA. As a formidable rival to the Human Genome Project, Celera has set an ambitious goal of sequencing every human gene by 2001. Genes, which are segments of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), play crucial roles within organisms by performing specific tasks. Astonishingly, the human DNA contains over 100,000 genes and comprises more than 3 billion base pairs. To achieve their monumental task efficiently, Celera employs a method that involves sequencing small fragments of DNA and utilizing supercomputers to assemble them. While this approach may be considered cruder compared to the one employed by the publicly-funded Human Genome Project, it offers remarkable speed advantages. The completion of a comprehensive human genome map holds immense promise for various fields such as drug design and our understanding of genetic diseases. In this photograph from Science Photo Library's collection, we witness the intricate process behind unraveling the secrets held within our genetic blueprint. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and advancement in biotechnology and genetics.
