    GlossaryGene Expression Regulation

    control of when and how much genes produce their products

    Gene Expression Regulation refers to the processes that control the timing, location, and amount of a gene's product (such as a protein) being produced. This can involve mechanisms at various stages, including transcription (when DNA is copied into RNA), RNA processing, translation (when RNA is used to make proteins), and post-translational modifications. Proper regulation is crucial for normal development, cellular function, and response to environmental changes.
