Question
Chapter 12.5, Problem 2MQ
Summary Introduction
Gene fusions contain segments of DNAs from two different genes. Gene fusions are classified into two types, operon fusions and protein fusions. Gene fusions are widely used to study gene regulation. Analyzing the natural gene product is a challenging task, requires more time, and expensive.
