The MUTATION prototype newsgroup was established to enhance the rate of transfer of mutation technology and Human Genome Project findings to clinical and research problems. Mutation in any organism, environmental mutagenesis, and mutation mechanisms are discussed, including new mutation-detection technologies, databases, and problems.

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international 13-year effort, 1990 to 2003. Primary goals were to discover the complete set of human genes and make them accessible for further biological study, and determine the complete sequence of DNA bases in the human genome. See Timeline for more HGP history.
Published from 1989 until 2002, this newsletter facilitated HGP communication, helped prevent duplication of research effort, and informed persons interested in genome research.
