in 2000, the human genome was triumphantly released as a reference genome with approximately 8% missing information (gaps). In 2022- exactly 22 years later, technological advances enabled the gaps to be filled. This is a notable scientific milestone, leading to the resolution of critical aspects of human genetic diversity, including evolutionary comparisons to our ancestors. What was the technology used in 2022, and how significant are the gaps that have been resolved? What new insight will be gained from this new information- especially pertaining to understanding epigenetics?

Genome annotation

The technique of linking biological information to genome sequences is termed genome annotation. Gene annotation is the method of identifying gene locations and coding sections. It helps us understand what these genes are doing in the body through establishing structural characteristics and linking them to the actions of various proteins.
