The human globin locus is composed of five gene s located on a short region of Chromosome 11 human chromosome 11 , responsible for the creation of the beta parts roughly half of the oxygen transport protein Hemoglobin . This locus contains not only the HBB beta globin gene but also HBD delta , HBG1 gamma A , HBG2 gamma G , and HBE1 epsilon globin.

LRGs have fixed sequences that are independent of the genome so that they provide a stable framework for reporting variants. The LRG format uses extensible markup language XML to provide highly structured single records containing the genomic DNA sequence for individual gene s along with the mRNA s and protein s encoded by these genes. LRG records are recommended in the http www.hgvs.org mutnomen Human Genome Variation Society Nomenclature guidelines as reference sequences to report sequence variants in LSDBs and the literature. The Mutalyzer 2 sequence nomenclature checker can check sequence variant descriptions using LRGs. The LRG concept was developed by the http www.gen2phen.org GEN2PHEN project in conjunction with the European Bioinformatics Institute EBI and the National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI . The http www.lrg sequence.org LRG homepage provides access to existing LRG sequences and allows the submission of requests for the creation of new LRGs.

PBB geneid 2778 GNAS complex locus , also known as GNAS , is a protein which in humans is encoded by the GNAS gene . The protein encoded by this gene is the stimulatory G protein alpha subunit Gs alpha subunit G sub s sub , a key component of many signal transduction pathways. Gene This gene locus genetics locus has a highly complex imprinted expression pattern. It gives rise to maternally, paternally, and biallelically expressed transcripts that are derived from four alternative promoters and 5 exons. Some transcripts contains a differentially methylated region DMR at their 5 exons, and this DMR is commonly found in imprinted genes and correlates with transcript expression. An antisense transcript exists, and this antisense transcript and one of the transcripts are paternally expressed, produce noncoding RNAs, and may regulate imprinting in this region. In addition, one of the transcripts contains a second overlapping ORF, which encodes a structurally unrelated protein. The GNAS locus is imprinted and encodes 5 main transcripts Gs alpha subunit G sub s sub XLAS NESP55 A B transcript antisense GNAS transcript Protein Alternative splicing of downstream exons is also observed, which results in different forms of the stimulatory G protein alpha subunit Gs alpha subunit G sub s sub , a key element of the classical signal transduction pathway linking receptor ligand interactions with the activation of adenylyl cyclase and a variety of cellular responses.

An on line book is a resource in book like form that is only available to read online . It differs from the common idea of an ebook , which is usually available to download and read locally or on an ebook reader . Book like means information is presented in pages pages are normally read sequentially though flipping to another page is possible pages are read passively, with little or no interaction or multimedia Online means the content may only be read while the reader is online. Thus the reader s experience is similar to reading a printed book, except that the book is read at a computer and is only accessible while the reader is online. Online books are a common resource in virtual learning environment s. For example the Moodle VLE defines an online book in this way.

Unreferenced date August 2011 Online marketplace or online ecommerce marketplace refers to a type of ecommerce site where product and inventory information is provided by multiple third parties, whereas transactions are processes by the marketplace operator. Online marketplaces have become a driver of new business for online merchants that leverage them as channels for increased sales. Online marketplaces are the primary type of multichannel ecommerce . In an online marketplace, consumer transactions are processed by the marketplace operator, which functions as the merchant of record , and then delivered and fulfilled by the participating retailers or wholesalers often called Drop shipping . Marketplaces offer a variety of products and provide consumers with the convenience of purchasing such products from a single store. In general, because marketplaces aggregate products from a wide array of providers, selection is usually more wide, availability is higher, and prices are more competitive compared to vendor specific online retail stores .
