Abstract

The lively discussion on human genome sequencing is continuing on the pages of science and popular journals. Despite this fact, the most developed west countries began the organization and technical works directed to the bulk reading of the DNA sequences. The cost of the suggested project became lower in the course of this review writing. Therefore, the work on this project is assumed to be completed within the real terms.
