- Company Profile:
All the variations of genes in a species.
See also: allele, gene, polymorphism.
Industry:Biology
Proteins expressed by a cell or organ at a particular time and under specific conditions..
Industry:Biology
Predictions of possible genes made by a computer program based on how well a stretch of DNA sequence matches known gene sequences.
Industry:Biology
The biochemical material, either RNA or protein, resulting from expression of a gene. The amount of gene product is used to measure how active a gene is; abnormal amounts can be correlated with disease-causing alleles..
Industry:Biology
An experimental procedure aimed at replacing, manipulating, or supplementing nonfunctional or misfunctioning genes with healthy genes.
See also: gene, inherit, somatic cell gene therapy, germ line gene therapy.
Industry:Biology
Incorporation of new DNA into and organism's cells, usually by a vector such as a modified virus. Used in gene therapy.
See also: mutation, gene therapy, vector.
Industry:Biology
The sequence of nucleotides, coded in triplets (codons) along the mRNA, that determines the sequence of amino acids in protein synthesis. A gene's DNA sequence can be used to predict the mRNA sequence, and the genetic code can in turn be used to predict the amino acid sequence..
Industry:Biology
Provides patients and their families with education and information about genetic-related conditions and helps them make informed decisions..
