English
Noun
genon (plural genons)
- (mathematics) A branch cut between two complex planes.
2013, M Barkeshli, CM Jian, XL Qi, “Theory of defects in Abelian topological states”, in Physical Review B:The genon in this case is defined as the branch-cut point where the branch-cut line ends.
- (genetics) A coding sequence (or gene) together with the information necessary to fully express that coding sequence, such as epigenetic factors.
2015, Jeremy Ramsden, Bioinformatics: An Introduction:The genon is defined as the coding sequence (which can then revert to being called "gene," akin to the sense of cistron, but better (less ambiguously) expresed in terms of the mRNA that is translated into a protein) together with the additional information that is needed to fully express the coding sequence. The genon is therefore more akin to a program that results in a functionally active gene product.
2017, Rodrick Wallace, Computational Psychiatry: A Systems Biology Approach to the Epigenetics of Mental Disorders:Their central point is that coding information is not simply contained in the coded sequence, but is, in their terms, provided by the genon that accompanies it on the expression pathway and controls in which peptide it will end up.
