What is temporal gene expression?
Temporal regulation – a type of regulation of gene expression in which a gene is only expressed at a specific time in development; for example, genes that are only expressed in the light or during flower development.
How does gene expression change with age?
Gene expression is influenced by both genetic variants and the environment. As individuals age, changes in gene expression may be associated with decline in physical and cognitive abilities. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis indicated an enrichment of biological processes involved in the immune system.
What changes the expression of genes?
Different transcription factors can turn on at different times during successive generations of cells. As cells mature and go through different stages (arrows), transcription factors (colored balls) can act on gene expression and change the cell in different ways.
What does increased gene expression mean?
Gene expression is the process by which the instructions in our DNA are converted into a functional product, such as a protein. It acts as both an on/off switch to control when proteins are made and also a volume control that increases or decreases the amount of proteins made.
What is a temporal change?
The ‘temporal change’ means the change with time. The temporal changes in NDVI can point out a lot of parameters varying with time, such as seasonal changes of deciduous forests, algal bloom, stages of crop cycle and many others.
What does temporal and spatial mean?
Spatiotemporal, or spatial temporal, relates to space and time. Spatial refers to space and temporal refers to time.
What is the difference between development and aging?
In summary, aging is a programmed mechanism that is driven by a multifactorial developmental process. During development, these processes are crucial for the establishment of the placental environment, and they further culminate in tissue differentiation and embryonic survival.
Can phenotypes change as you age?
The phenotype may change constantly throughout the life of an individual because of environmental changes and the physiological and morphological changes associated with aging.
