The 45 pages that link to Gene, each with the reason it gives.

• AlleleNarrower topic: Many alleles are alternative forms of the same gene.

• Mendelian inheritanceNarrower topic: Mendelian patterns track alternative forms of genes across generations.

• Prenatal diagnosisNarrower topic: Some prenatal diagnoses identify variants in particular genes rather than chromosome-wide changes.

• Synthetic biologyNarrower topic: Genes are the basic information-bearing units altered in many synthetic designs.

• TranscriptionNarrower topic: A gene's transcribed region provides the DNA sequence copied into RNA.

• Genetic linkageNarrower topic: Linkage concerns how different genes are transmitted together.

• Hardy–Weinberg principleNarrower topic: The principle tracks variants at a gene locus.

• X chromosomeNarrower topic: Genes distributed along the X chromosome encode many of its biological effects.

• Sex chromosomeNarrower topic: Sex chromosomes matter through the genes they carry and regulate.

• Y chromosomeNarrower topic: Genes on the Y encode products involved in development and sperm production.

• Genetic heterogeneityNarrower topic: Different genes are the distinct genetic locations whose variants can yield similar conditions.

• Genetic disorderNarrower topic: Many disorders arise when a gene’s sequence or activity is altered.

• MutagenesisNarrower topic: Mutations within genes can alter their products or expression.

• Chromosomal translocationNarrower topic: Translocation breakpoints can interrupt genes or bring them under different regulatory control.

• IntronNarrower topic: Introns are parts of many genes, alongside exons and regulatory sequences.

• Site-directed mutagenesisNarrower topic: Mutations are introduced into genes to test their roles or alter their products.

• PseudogeneNarrower topic: Pseudogenes resemble genes but have lost or lack their original productive capacity.

• Reverse geneticsNarrower topic: Reverse genetics begins by selecting a gene whose role is unknown or incomplete.

• Protein isoformNarrower topic: A gene is the shared source from which its protein isoforms arise.

• Non-coding DNANarrower topic: Non-coding DNA includes genes whose functional products are RNA rather than protein.

• Dominant traitNarrower topic: Alleles of a gene can produce different versions of a heritable characteristic.

• OperonNarrower topic: An operon organizes several genes under shared transcriptional control.

• Regulation of gene expressionNarrower topic: Regulation changes the output of genes, including protein-coding and noncoding genes.

• Y linkageNarrower topic: Y linkage concerns genes located on the same Y chromosome.
