The Human Genome: Information Content and Structure
Abstract
At a length of two meters and a width of two billionths of a meter, the genome amounts to a library whose code letters carry complete instructions for building and maintaining a human. Until recently, the code was modified only by mutation and natural selection. Today, however, we possess the technology to read and write DNA. The consequent knowledge is already changing medical practice.

“Traditionally, it has actually roughly been estimated over the last decades that the total length of human diploid DNA is around 2 m (Table 1) [7–13].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
