Mechanism of Eukaryotic Gene Expression | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the mechanism of eukaryotic gene expression, particularly in humans. 1. In multicellular organism, each cell expresses a subset of its genes. 2. A cell expresses different genes depending on its growth state or environment. 3. Sometimes gene transcripts are spliced differently in different cells. 4. Each gene carries not only structural inforĀ­mation but [...]

Gene: Features and Effects | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the features and effects of gene. Essential Features of Gene: Prior to 1940, recombination was not believed to occur within genes. The genes in a chromosome were considered analogous to beads on a string. Recombination was believed to occur only between the beads or genes. The gene was not considered subdivisible. But, on [...]

Functional Activities of Gene in Action | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the functional activities of gene in action. The functional activity of these genes which are needed in all cell types are known as house-keeping genes and those who are active or the activities of those genes are found only in some specialized cells are known as luxury genes. But from the point of [...]
