•List of human protein-coding genes page 2 covers genes EPHA1–MTMR3 •List of human protein-coding genes page 3 covers genes MTMR4–SLC17A7 •List of human protein-coding genes page 4 covers genes SLC17A8–ZZZ3 NB: Each list page contains 5000 human protein-coding genes, sorted alphanumerically by the HGNC-approved gene symbol.
[14] [15] These genes contain an average of 10 introns and the average size of an intron is about 6 kb (6,000 bp). [16] This means that the average size of a protein-coding gene is about 62 kb and these genes take up about 40% of the genome. [17] Exon sequences consist of coding DNA and untranslated regions (UTRs) at either end of the mature mRNA.
This is a list of gene families or gene complexes, i.e. sets of genes which are related ancestrally and often serve similar biological functions.These gene families typically encode functionally related proteins, and sometimes the term gene families is a shorthand for the sets of proteins that the genes encode.
A gene family is a set of several similar genes, formed by duplication of a single original gene, and generally with similar biochemical functions. One such family are the genes for human hemoglobin subunits; the ten genes are in two clusters on different chromosomes, called the α-globin and β-globin loci.
A very simple genotype–phenotype map that only shows additive pleiotropy effects. The genotype–phenotype map is a conceptual model in genetic architecture.Coined in a 1991 paper by Pere Alberch, [1] it models the interdependency of genotype (an organism's full hereditary information) with phenotype (an organism's actual observed properties).
[1] [5] [6] The GeneCards database provides access to free Web resources about more than 350,000 known and predicted human genes, integrated from >150 data resources, such as HGNC, Ensembl, and NCBI. The core gene list is based on NCBI, Ensembl and approved gene symbols published by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC).
Chromosome 20 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans.Chromosome 20 spans around 66 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 2 and 2.5 percent of the total DNA in cells.
Human genetics is the study of inheritance as it occurs in human beings.Human genetics encompasses a variety of overlapping fields including: classical genetics, cytogenetics, molecular genetics, biochemical genetics, genomics, population genetics, developmental genetics, clinical genetics, and genetic counseling.
