Chromosome 20 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. Chromosome 20 spans around 63 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 2 and 2.5 percent of the total DNA in cells. Chromosome 20 was fully sequenced in 2001 and was reported to contain over 59 million base pairs representing 99.4% of the euchromatic DNA.[3] Since then, due to sequencing improvements and fixes, the length of chromosome 20 has been updated to just over 63 million base pairs.[1]
Identifying genes on each chromosome is an active area of genetic research. Because researchers use different approaches to predict the number of genes on each chromosome, the estimated number of genes varies. Depending on the genome annotation used, chromosome 20 contains 897 or 1,068 genes.[4][5] New discoveries[when?] have recently linked this chromosome to the increasing susceptibility to male-pattern baldness.[citation needed]

- Small cell ovarian carcinoma: genomic stability and responsiveness to therapeutics.
- Gamwell LF, Gambaro K, Merziotis M, Crane C, Arcand SL, Bourada V, Davis C, Squire JA, Huntsman DG, Tonin PN, Vanderhyden BC.AbstractABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The biology of small cell ovarian carcinoma of the hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT), which is a rare and aggressive form of ovarian cancer, is poorly understood. Tumourigenicity, in vitro growth characteristics, genetic and genomic anomalies, and sensitivity to standard and novel chemotherapeutic treatments were investigated in the unique SCCOHT cell line, BIN-67, to provide further insight in the biology of this rare type of ovarian cancer.

- Purpose. Previously, we mapped the disease locus in the Beagle model of autosomal recessive primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) to a 4 Mb interval on chromosome 20, and identified a Gly661Arg variant in ADAMTS10 as the candidate disease-causing variant. The purpose of this study was to test the hypot
