Estimate the minimum size that a eukaryotic genome could


Assume that most eukaryotes have approximately 25 000 protein-coding genes, and that the average eukarotic protein has a length of 300 amino acids. Assume that other functional regions, including RNA-coding genes and control regions, do not require more base pairs that the protein-coding genes themselves (an assumption for which there exists not the slightest justification other than ignorance). Estimate the minimum size that a eukaryotic genome could potentially have.
