gene

Also known as genes

unità ereditaria fondamentale degli organismi viventi

AI overview

A gene is a unit of heredity that contains the instructions for traits passed from parents to offspring, and at the molecular level, it's a specific sequence of DNA that gets copied into RNA. Genes matter because they direct the production of RNA and proteins that control how our bodies develop and function.

Un gene (AFI: /ˈʤɛne/) in biologia molecolare e in genetica indica l'unità ereditaria fondamentale degli organismi viventi. Un gene è una sequenza nucleotidica di DNA che codifica la sequenza primaria di un prodotto genico finale, che può essere o un RNA strutturale o catalitico, oppure un polipeptide. Una definizione più concisa di gene, che tenga conto delle varie sfaccettature citate fino ad ora, è stata proposta da : un gene è l'unione di sequenze genomiche che codificano per un set coerente di prodotti funzionali potenzialmente sovrapponibili.
