  2. Cis-regulatory element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis-regulatory_element

    Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) or cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) are regions of non-coding DNA which regulate the transcription of neighboring genes.CREs are vital components of genetic regulatory networks, which in turn control morphogenesis, the development of anatomy, and other aspects of embryonic development, studied in evolutionary developmental biology.

  3. Complementation (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementation_(genetics)

    Since the mutations are recessive, the offspring will display the wild-type phenotype. A complementation test (sometimes called a "cis-trans" test) can test whether the mutations in two strains are in different genes. Complementation is usually weaker or absent if the mutations are in the same gene.

    Compared to 24 cisgender males, they showed only lower FA values in the corticospinal tract. The white matter patterns in trans men were found to be shifted in the direction of cis men. [26] [non-primary source needed] A 2011 review published in Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology found that "Female INAH3 and BSTc have been found in MtF transsexual ...

  5. Expression quantitative trait loci - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expression_quantitative...

    Some cis eQTLs are detected in many tissue types but the majority of trans eQTLs are tissue-dependent (dynamic). [10] eQTLs may act in cis (locally) or trans (at a distance) to a gene. [11] The abundance of a gene transcript is directly modified by polymorphism in regulatory elements. Consequently, transcript abundance might be considered as a ...

  6. Trans-regulatory element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-regulatory_element

    Trans-acting factors in alternative splicing in mRNA. Alternative splicing is a key mechanism that is involved in gene expression regulation. In the alternative splicing, trans-acting factors such as SR protein, hnRNP and snRNP control this mechanism by acting in trans. SR protein promotes the spliceosome assembly by interacting with snRNP(e.g. U1, U2) and splicing factors(e.g. U2AF65), and it ...

  7. Cistron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cistron

    The cistron was defined by an operational test applicable to most organisms that is sometimes referred to as a cis-trans test, but more often as a complementation test. Richard Dawkins in his influential book The Selfish Gene argues against the cistron being the unit of selection and against it being the best definition of a gene.

    "Trans women are women—full stop. We're every bit as 'biologically female' as cis women & @SpeakerJohnson's statement doesn't change the fact that women's spaces include trans women."

  9. Translation regulation by 5′ transcript leader cis-elements

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_regulation_by_5...

    The strict regulation of translation in both space and time is in part governed by cis-regulatory elements located in 5′ mRNA transcript leaders (TLs) and 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs). Due to their role in translation initiation, mRNA 5′ transcript leaders (TLs) strongly influence protein expression.
