A category of nucleic acid sequences that function as units of heredity and which code for the basic instructions for the development, reproduction, and maintenance of organisms. (MSH) A functional unit of heredity which occupies a specific position on a particular chromosome and serves as the template for a product that contributes to a phenotype or a biological function. (NCI) Segment of the genome that codes for a functional product. (CSP) Description:A DNA segment that contributes to phenotype/function. In the absence of demonstrated function a gene may be characterized by sequence, transcription or homology (HL7V3.0) Biological macromolecule which is a segment of a DNA molecule and which consists of sets of nucleotide pairs organized into regions of coding, noncoding and regulatory sequences.
