Gene database of genes on different human chromosomes

Since the advent of the genomics age that began in the 1990s with the sequencing of a couple of model bacterial and eukaryotic genomes, humans have been on a quest to sequence many species in our ecosystems to find commonalities and differences in sequence that help explain phenotypes. This led to the field of functional genomics, and which is what gave us the capability to automatically annotate a genome with sequence homology as probe. This work sought to provide the gene database of all genes in the human genome on a granular level by categorizing the genetic repertoire of humans at the chromosomal level. Specifically, an in-house MATLAB genome analysis software was used to parse the annotated genome sequence file of different chromosomes of the human genome. Variables that have been output for each gene includes gene name, gene function, promoter sequence and gene sequence. Such information, when aggregated at the level of chromosomes, and entire genome, should inform further studies seeking to unravel the mysteries that link gene sequence, gene expression, cell differentiation, and organismal developmental trajectories and phenotypes.
