candidate gene
1candidate gene — candidate gene. См. ген кандидат. (Источник: «Англо русский толковый словарь генетических терминов». Арефьев В.А., Лисовенко Л.А., Москва: Изд во ВНИРО, 1995 г.) …
2Candidate gene — A candidate gene is a gene, located in a chromosome region suspected of being involved in the expression of a trait such as a disease, whose protein product suggests that it could be the gene in question. A candidate gene can also be identified… …
3Candidate gene — Any gene thought likely to cause a disease. The gene may be a candidate because it is located in a particular chromosome region suspected of being involved in the disease or its protein product may suggest that it could be the disease gene in… …
4candidate gene — A gene whose deduced function (on the basis of DNA sequence) suggests that it may be involved in the genetic control of an aspect of phenotype …
5candidate-gene strategy — An experimental approach in which knowledge of the biochemistry and/or physiology of a trait is used to identify candidate genes. Synonym: functional gene cloning …
6Gene Amondson — Born October 15, 1943 Morton, Washington Died July 20, 2009(2009 07 20) (aged 65) …
7Gene Mullin — is a Democratic California State Assemblymember and former South San Francisco Council member. He represents the 19th Assembly District, which includes San Mateo, Burlingame, Brisbane, Daly City, Foster City, Millbrae, San Bruno, South San… …
8comparative positional candidate gene — Relates to an indirect means of assigning function to a QTL. Where a QTL has been linked to a marker in one species, and that same marker is linked to a known gene in a model system, inferences may be drawn as to the nature of the QTL …
9positional candidate gene — A gene known to be located in the same region as a DNA marker that has been shown to be linked to a single locus trait or to a QTL, and whose deduced function suggests that it could be the source of genetic variation in the trait in question …
10Gene prediction — Gene finding typically refers to the area of computational biology that is concerned with algorithmically identifying stretches of sequence, usually genomic DNA, that are biologically functional. This especially includes protein coding genes, but …
