Hi Guy, The chimpanzee genome is fully sequenced (read the description here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway?org=Chimp&db=panTro2), however it has not been as intensively annotated as the human genome. Thus, the human genome has more mRNAs and protein sequences.
I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to contact the mail list again if you require further assistance.
