Celera Genomics (NYSE:CRA), a PE Corporation business, announced today that it has sequenced approximately 1.15 billion base pairs -- letters of genetic code -- of mouse DNA.

Celera began to sequence the mouse genome on April 6, 2000.

A key component of Celera's business model is to provide subscribers with the ability to compare genomes from various organisms (comparative genomics). The comparison of the mouse, Drosophila, human, and other model organisms genomes is expected to open many new avenues of research into the mechanisms of gene conservation and regulation, which could lead to a better understanding of gene function and disease mechanisms.

This project is of critical importance to biomedical researchers using the mouse…
