Largest known human gene coding for dystrophin has 2.4 million bases.

Polymorphism in DNA sequence is the basis of genetic mapping of human genome as well as of DNA  fingerprinting.

DNA polymorphism in non – coding DNA sequence does not have immediate impact in an individual’s reproductive ability.

Chromosome 1 has most genes and Y has the fewest genes.

The total number of genes is estimated at 30,000 by HGP which is much lower than previous estimates of 80,000 to 1,40,000 genes.
