Summary Introduction

Introduction: Genes are sets of nucleotides that code for a particular protein. The genes have to be expressed for the synthesis of a protein. This gene expression is regulated depending on the requirement of the cell. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic genes have differential gene expression in order to suit the specific needs of the cell. All the living organisms have a chemical basis that is responsible for the heredity and variation in every organism whether it is plants, animals, or micro-organisms.
