Definitions of genom
Definition that contains genom
  • genomics the branch of genetics that studies organisms in terms of their genomes (their full DNA sequences)
  • craig ventner United States geneticist who published the complete base sequences for all the genes of a free-living organism, the influenza bacterium; later led team that developed a first draft of the entire human genome (born in 1946)
  • snp (genetics) genetic variation in a DNA sequence that occurs when a single nucleotide in a genome is altered; SNPs are usually considered to be point mutations that have been evolutionarily successful enough to recur in a significant proportion of the population of a species
  • proteomics the branch of genetics that studies the full set of proteins encoded by a genome
  • insertional mutagenesis (genetics) a mutation caused by the insertion of exogenous DNA into a genome
  • lysogenize become integrated into the genome of (a bacterium)
  • episome DNA that is not incorporated into the genome but is replicated together with the genome (especially in bacterial cells)
  • structural genomics the branch of genomics that determines the three-dimensional structures of proteins
  • j. craig ventner United States geneticist who published the complete base sequences for all the genes of a free-living organism, the influenza bacterium; later led team that developed a first draft of the entire human genome (born in 1946)
  • mouse-ear cress a small invasive self-pollinating weed with small white flowers; much studied by plant geneticists; the first higher plant whose complete genome sequence was described
