The complete set of DNA of an organism is called a genome. Virtually every cell in the body contains a complete copy of approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA, or letters, that make up the human genome. With its four-letter language, DNA contains the information needed to build the human body. A gene traditionally refers to the area of ​​DNA that contains instructions for making a specific protein or set of proteins. Each of the 20,000 - 25,000 genes stimulated in the human genome codes for an average of three proteins. Genomics is basically a combination of recombinant DNA, DNA sequencing methods and bioinformatics for sequencing, assembling and analyzing the structure and function of genomes. It differs from "classical genetics" in that it considers the full complement of hereditary material of an organism, rather than one gene or one gene product at a time. In addition, genomics focuses on the interactions between loci and alleles within the genome and other interactions such as epistasis, pleiotropy and heterosis. Genomics takes advantage of the availability of complete DNA sequences for interiors. The organization was made possible both by the pioneering work of Fred Sanger and by the latest next generation sequencing technology.
