Gene Families

10.3K
Gene families consist of groups of genes proposed to have originated from a common ancestor. Typically these arise through events in which a gene or genes are mistakenly duplicated during cell division. Unlike their parent genes (which are subject to selection pressure to maintain function), these gene copies do not need to preserve their sequences and may evolve at a relatively faster rate.
Occasionally these regions can be adapted to take on new roles within the organism, becoming novel genes...

A gene is the fundamental unit of heredity. Every individual has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Although most people contain the same genes, there is a small fraction that is slightly different amongst people. A gene with a small difference in its sequence of DNA bases forms different alleles, contributing to different phenotypes.
However, only 1% of the DNA is composed of genes that encode proteins; the rest, 99% is non-coding DNA. This non-coding DNA performs...

Other than maintaining genome stability via DNA repair, homologous recombination plays an important role in diversifying the genome. In fact, the recombination of sequences forms the molecular basis of genomic evolution. Random and non-random permutations of genomic sequences create a library of new amalgamated sequences. These newly formed genomes can determine the fitness and survival of cells. In bacteria, homologous and non-homologous types of recombination lead to the evolution of new...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Plant Science
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is a crucial fruit crop and a model for woody fruit development.
  • The sequencing of the grapevine genome in 2007 led to an exponential increase in gene data.
  • Heterogeneous data storage and accessibility issues hinder the exploitation of grapevine genomic information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a coordinated and standardized nomenclature for grapevine gene naming.
  • To enhance the accessibility and usability of grapevine gene annotation data.
  • To facilitate scientific discussion and discovery by enabling effective data mining and comparative analyses.

Main Methods:

  • Formation of an international Super-Nomenclature Committee for Grape Gene Annotation (sNCGGa).
  • Development of a gene naming system and conventions for locus identifiers.
  • Implementation of community-based gene curation through a common annotation platform.

Main Results:

  • A versatile nomenclature system for grapevine genes has been developed.
  • Guidelines for expert annotators have been established.
  • A gene nomenclature scheme consistent with other model organisms has been defined.

Conclusions:

  • The developed nomenclature system anticipates future genomic developments and annotation challenges.
  • The initiative promotes community-based gene curation and facilitates comparative genomic analyses.
  • Standardized gene naming is essential for advancing grapevine research and functional genomics.
