The term gene was coined by Johannsen(1909). He defined gene as an elementary unit of inheritance.Morgan(1910) defined gene to be a part of chromosome which functions as unit of recombination. Gene is therefore, a unit of inheritance which carries coded information associated with a specific function. Monday, May 9, 2011

Characteristics. 1.It is a component of genetic material which contains coded information. 2.It is able to express its effect by regulating metabolism. 3.It is capable of replication. 4.It can undergo mutation. It is basic to biological variations that are essential for adaptation and evolution. 5.New genes develop due to reshuffling of components of existing genes. 6.It occupies a specific locus over the chromosome.

Genes and Enzymes Archibald Garrod (father of biochemical genetics) found that black urine disease alkaptonuria is a genetic disorder caused by a recessive allele. The disorder is a result of an inborn error of metabolism wherein homogentisic acid or alkapton accumulates in the body.The acid is formed during metabolism of 2 amino acids,phenylalanine and tyrosine.Normally, alkapton or homogentisic acid is oxidized to CO2 and H2O with the help of alkapton oxidase. Phenylalanine +Tyrosine / Alkapton / oxidase CO2 +H2O Monday, May 9, 2011
