the functional and physical unit of heredity passed from parent to offspring
a specific sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that is located usually on a chromosome and that is the functional unit of inheritance controlling the transmission and expression of one or more traits by specifying the structure of a particular polypeptide and especially a protein or controlling the function of other genetic material
Geenivaramuga seotud geeniuuringud on lubatud geenide, elukeskkonna ja inimeste eluviisi vaheliste seoste uurimiseks ja kirjeldamiseks, selle põhjal ravimite või ravimeetodite leidmiseks, individuaalsete terviseriskide hindamiseks ning haiguste ennetamiseks.
There are thousands of genes in the chromosomes of each cell nucleus; they play an important role in heredity because they control the individual physical, biochemical, and physiologic traits inherited by offspring from their parents.
The industrial application of a sequence or a partial sequence of a gene must be disclosed in the patent application.
