What’s a gene?
A gene is a locatable region of genomic sequence, corresponding to a unit of inheritance, which is associated with regulatory regions, transcribed regions and/or other functional sequence regions.The physical development and phenotype of organisms can be thought of as a product of genes interacting with each other and with the environment A definition of gene, has been proposed by Gerstein et al. "A gene is a union of genomic sequences encoding a coherent set of potentially overlapping functional products".
