Understanding genomics - Genomics England
WEBThe building blocks of genomes. Your genome is all 3.2 billion letters of your DNA. It contains around 20,000 genes. Genes are the instructions for making the proteins our bodies are built of – from the keratin in hair and fingernails to the antibody proteins that fight infection. Genes make up about 1-5% of your genome.
