Why are more people sensitive to caffeine than others? ☕ Here are 3 gene mutations that might explain why! - CYP1A2 Gene - ADORA2A Gene - COMT & MAO Genes Do you think you’re caffeine-sensitive? Would love to hear below! #CaffeineSensitivity #Coffee #Genetics #MentalHealth

How allele frequencies will change if genotype frequencies change Allele frequency, or gene frequency, is the relative frequency of an allele (variant of a gene) at a particular locus in a population, expressed as a fraction or percentage. ... Microevolution is the change in allele frequencies that occurs over time within a population. Youtube video: https://lnkd.in/d3BHaqzM #nikolaysgeneticslessons

How to Find a Frequency of Alleles in a Population Allele frequency, or gene frequency, is the relative frequency of an allele (variant of a gene) at a particular locus in a population, expressed as a fraction or percentage. Specifically, it is the fraction of all chromosomes in the population that carry that allele. Youtube video: https://lnkd.in/dXvFegbQ #nikolaysgeneticslessons

What is a Gene Pool? The gene pool is the set of all genes (alleles), or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. Youtube video: https://lnkd.in/dyvXZWFi #nikolaysgeneticslessons

How Does Fish Adapt To Hypoxic Conditions? Research using cDNA microarray studies has shown that fish exposed to hypoxia undergo significant changes in gene expression. These changes are aimed at optimising oxygen uptake, improving oxygen distribution, and adjusting metabolic energy balance. For example, genes involved in glycolysis are upregulated, while those associated with energy consumption are suppressed. These genetic responses are thought to be regulated by mechanisms similar to those in mammals, involving the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway. HIF-1A Is a Transcription factor that activates genes needed to compact hypoxia. https://lnkd.in/g2N46Qek #fish #fisheries #hypoxia #geneexpressions

Prickle loss is caused by a mutation in a duplicated member of the LONELY GUY (LOG) classical cytokinin hormone biosynthetic gene family. It might pave a way to the predictable removal of prickles in food and ornamental crop species, such as the rose, using genome editing. https://lnkd.in/gV2hjHng

What is a Gene Pool? The gene pool is the set of all genes \(alleles\), or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species. Youtube video: https://lnkd.in/dYM9Mxnu \#nikolays_genetics_lessons

What is initiation site of the gene? A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. The site on the DNA from which the first RNA nucleotide is transcribed is called the +1 site, or the initiation site. Nucleotides that come before the initiation site are given negative numbers and said to be upstream. Youtube video: https://lnkd.in/dS5jQW38 \#nikolays_genetics_lessons
