DNA sequencing, today and tomorrow.
When we have the completed sequence, by about the year 2000, it will be possible to search more efficiently for genes involved in multifactorial diseases, including various cancers. With the genome sequenced and the full complement of genes identified, basic questions about our common biology will become central issues in the twenty-first century.
