[DIYbio] Re: Genomics and Next Generation Sequencing course in Silicon Valley

Hello,

have they compared more than 1% of human and chimpanzee DNA already?

Also I dont find anywhere, how many percent is chimp DNA already sequenced.

As here only 1.9 million base pairs was compared, it is about 0.06% of the whole genome. Why only so little can be compared?

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC379137/

Also this is noteworthy:

"98.6% sequence identity drops to only 86.7% taking into account the multiple insertions/deletions (indels) dispersed throughout the region. "
