"Gene products" refers to the various molecules or substances that are produced as a result of a gene's instructions. Genes contain the instructions for making proteins, which are essential for the functioning and development of living organisms. These proteins, along with other molecules like RNA, are considered
gene products. They play important roles in various biological processes and contribute to the overall characteristics and traits of an organism.

When human YME1L1 was introduced into yeast with the mutated YME1, the human
gene product partially rescued the YME1 mutation, preventing migration of mitochondrial DNA into the nucleus.
«Another important aspect of our study is that, at least for some genes, co-expression of alternative
gene products appears to be an actively regulated process rather than being simply a result of «splicing noise.»
In this way, the team identified a new small protein, growth
inhibitor gene product (Gp) 0.6, which specifically targets and inhibits the activity of a protein essential to bacterial cells.
SGI - 110 is a novel next generation small molecule drug which inhibits DNA methylation — one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression, the process by which genetic instructions are used to
synthesize gene products.
They comprise a little - explored realm of fungi, providing a repertoire of important and
valuable gene products for DOE missions in bioenergy and environment.
In August Japanese scientists reported yet another method for making «personalized» cells without cloning: They treated mouse skin cells with four
gene products active in embryonic stem cells and got the skin cells to revert to something much like the stem cells.

antiviral gene products, pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and interferons.
The problem chiefly involves antibodies, a class of proteins scientists have used for generations for everything from quantifying receptor expression to purifying
critical gene products.
They found that minor allele carriers had less IL -

The researchers also note that many neuropsychiatric and neurological diseases are associated with chronic alterations of
specific gene products in neurons.
The RNA structure also functions as a temperature sensor when introduced into bacteria other than Listeria, making it useful as a tool to
manipulate gene products, they report in the 6 September issue of Cell.
Melton and colleagues are now doing large scale screening with microarrays to track gene activity as cells develop and
discover gene products that move cells along the proper paths.
