	Gene - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In common speech, "gene" is often used to refer to the hereditary cause of a trait, disease or condition—as in "the gene for obesity." Speaking more precisely, a biologist might refer to an allele or a mutation that has been implicated in or is associated with obesity.
		In molecular biology, a gene is considered to be the region of DNA (or RNA, in the case of some viruses) that determines the structure of a protein (the coding sequence), together with the region of DNA that controls when and where the protein will be produced (the regulatory sequence).
		The existence of genes was first suggested by Gregor Mendel, who, in the 1860s, studied inheritance in pea plants and hypothesized a factor that conveys traits from parent to offspring.

	Gene family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A gene family is a set of genes defined by presumed homology, i.e.
		Genes are generally categorized into families based upon shared sequence motifs and similarities in structure.
		If the genes of a gene family encode proteins, the term protein family is often used in an analogous manner to gene family.

		In the molecular-biological sense, genes are the segments of DNA which cells transcribe into RNA and translate, at least in part, into proteins.
		In molecular biology, the DNA of a gene encodes the chemical structure of a protein.

	MGI 3.44 - Rules for Nomenclature of Genes, Genetic Markers, Alleles, and Mutations in Mouse and Rat Revised: Jan, ...
		Where a gene becomes assigned to a gene family (of paralogs), and the nomenclature of the family is established.
		Genes identified solely by a recessive lethal phenotype with no heterozygous effect are named for the chromosomal assignment, a serial number and the name of the laboratory of origin (from the Laboratory code).
		Mutations produced by random insertion of a transgene (not by gene targeting) are named as a mutant allele of the gene (which should be given a name and symbol if it is a novel gene), with the superscript the symbol for the transgene (see Section 3.1.1 for examples, and Section 4 for naming transgenes).

	Gene Expression: Family walking on all fours....
		These include what seems to be a familial predisposition to bear-crawling as children (all 19 children, including all the healthy ones, did it), and a mix of other cultural influences such as lack of a pro-active health service.
		I think the reason this family are walking this way is purely a balance thing, because of the nature of their brain abnormalities, similar to being drunk for us (how many of us have had a hangover and been so off balance, you crawl to the loo?).
		The family had a special beauty and should be left to live as they are apart from the need to educate the village about them and giving them respect and support.

	List of gene families - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is a list of gene families or gene complexes, that is sets of genes which occur across a number of different species which often serve similar biological functions.
		These gene families typically encode functionally related proteins, and sometimes the term gene families is a shorthand for the sets of proteins that the genes encode.
		They may or may not be physically adjacent on the same chromosome.

		The Tub gene encodes a novel protein present in the cytoplasm and nucleoli of neuronal cell nuclei in the retina and brain.
		Furthermore, genes expressed in the retina that possess glycosyltransferase motifs and are important in glycosylation in the neuroretina are being mutagenized by various targeting approaches.
		Considering the large number of mutant genes that lead to retinal degeneration, therapeutics that affect pathways or mechanisms that are shared or “common” to all types of primary mutations may be the best targets.

		We suggest that a mechanism of concerted intron loss in which reverse transcription of a cellular mRNA, followed by partial gene replacement of the endogenous gene copy by an intronless cDNA, is a relatively common event during genomic evolution and has occured at least twice in the evolution of the grass catalase genes.
		The gene duplications to create three genes, each containing seven introns, occurred early in the evolution of angiosperms and preceded the split between monocots and dicots.

		This is an efficient and useful way to name large numbers of related genes, and already works well for a number of established gene groupings.
		When a new gene nomenclature scheme is proposed, we try to contact a number of scientists prominent in that specialist area, to ensure that the majority are in agreement over the symbols (see Specialist Advisors).
