WHAT IF? Since the results support a role for mouse FOXP2 invocalization, you might wonder whether the human FOXP2 protein is akey regulator of speech. If you were given the amino acid sequences ofwild-type and mutant human FOXP2 proteins and the wild-type chimpanzee FOXP2 protein, how would you investigate this question? What furtherclues could you obtain by comparing these sequences to that of the mouseFOXP2 protein?

Genome is defined as the complete set of genes and the DNA of an organism. A genome consists of coding as well non-coding sequences. Each genome carries all the information that is needed to maintain all the essential processes in organisms. Different genes are responsible for performing different functions in the body.
