Are genes limited resources?

There are about10-140,000 genes in human body, and there is only one set of human genome. The search for genes in countries all over the world is really a "gene grab war". "Gene Detective" explored and decoded these10-140,000 genes one by one, and found one less. Who will take the lead in the commercial development of human genes (including the development of gene drugs, gene diagnosis and gene therapy, etc.)? ): Biomedical enterprises can only develop and utilize gene-related drugs under the premise of obtaining gene patent license; The number of gene patents determines the living space of biomedical enterprises. It can be seen that the limited genetic resources of human beings are being allocated at one time, and the biomedical industry is carrying out enclosure movement; Enterprises with the highest gene efficiency and the largest number are expected to use their gene patents to monopolize the market and serve the future development of biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry. At present, the fierce international competition for gene patents (for example, race around the circle or grab the runway) reflects the great potential of gene industry to create value. As Bill Gates said, the next person to create greater wealth will appear in the field of genes.
