A gene is the basic unit of heredity in a living organism. All living things depend on genes. Genes hold the information to build and maintain their cells and pass genetic traits to offspring. A mod...

Just like humans, monkeys are occasionally born with a defective gene that is responsible for some of the color receptors in their retinas, leaving them red–green color-blind. With this condition, even the brightest version of these colors is indistinguishable from gray.

We used chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays to explore K protein interactions with serum-inducible, constitutively expressed and untranscribed gene loci in vivo. In the rat HTC-IR hepatoma cell line, serum treatment induced transient increases in the mRNA levels of two immediate-early genes, egr-1 and c-myc.

Hipp1a and Hipp5a individually modulate hippocampal weight by 1.0-2.0 mg, an effect size greater than that generated by age or sex. The Hipp gene loci modulate neuron number in the dentate gyrus, collectively shifting the population up or down by as much as 200,000 cells.

This provides opportunities for reverse genetics and functional studies at the level of the gene locus and above. The latter requires methods for the cloning and manipulation of large DNA fragments, without the limitations imposed by the need for suitably positioned restriction enzyme sites.

For each of three nuclear gene loci, intraspecific- as well as trans-specific shared polymorphisms were detected in DNA among three distantly related species in the genus Picea. Few fixed interspecific polymorphisms were observed.
