Tests
A gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) test measures the amount of GGT in your blood GGT is an enzyme. Enzymes are proteins that speed up certain chemical reactions in your body. Thousands of enzymes play an important role in all of your body functions. The GGT enzyme is found throughout your body, but it is mainly found in your liver.
Indicators
Gastrin (101 aa, ~11 kDa) is encoded by the human GAST gene. This protein plays a role in the modulation of gastric acid and pancreatic digestive enzyme secretion.
Indicators
Gastrin-releasing peptide (27 aa, ~3 kDa) is encoded by the human GRP gene. This protein is involved in hormone signaling in both the gastrointestinal and nervous systems.
Indicators
This gene is involved in erythropoiesis and transcriptional activation.
Indicators
This gene is involved in both DNA binding and transcriptional regulation.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in the modulation of transcription.
Glossary Term
Any DNA sequence rearrangement that results in the gain of one or more copies of a DNA segment that contains at least one gene.
Glossary Term
A deletion that results in the loss of a DNA segment encompassing an entire gene sequence.
Glossary Term
Typically involves transcription of genetically encoded information into an intermediary message (messenger RNA) and subsequent translation into a functional protein.
Glossary Term
Any hybrid gene formed from two previously separate genes. Such fusions occur as a result of translocation, intersititial deletion or chromosomal inversion, and often result in gene products with functions different from the two fusion partners. Gene fusions are associated frequently with hematological cancers, sarcomas and prostate cancer.
Glossary Term
Genetic Variation consists of deviation(s) in the nucleotide sequence of the genetic material of an individual from that typical of the group to which the individual belongs, or deviation(s) in the nucleotide sequence of the genetic material of offspring from that of its parents.
Glossary Term
The complete genomic content of an organism, and possibly the full DNA sequence of that organism. It is contained in a set of chromosomes in eukaryotes, a single chromosome in bacteria, or a DNA or RNA molecule in viruses.
