The 3 x 109 base pairs that constitute the entire human genetic heritage; the Human Genome Project aims for a complete mapping of the human genome, identifying and sequencing regions of chromosomes that code for individual proteins.

The human genome is the complete DNA sequence, involving all genetic materials that make up humans.

The entire sequencing of DNA of the human species

All the genetic material (DNA) belonging to the human species--roughly 3 billion base pairs per cell.

The human genome is about a thousand times larger than an average bacterial genome. (IOCeleraGenome) Genoma humano Imagino que todo o próximo século será necessário para compreender o genoma humano, com centenas de milhares de pessoas trabalhando nele. (POFapesp2)

The human genome is the genome of Homo sapiens, which is composed of 24 distinct chromosomes (22 autosomal + X + Y) with a total of approximately 3 billion DNA base pairs containing an estimated 20,000-25,000 genes. http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v431/n7011/full/nature03001.html The Human Genome Project produced a reference sequence of the euchromatic human genome, which is used worldwide in biomedical sciences.
