Boston Business Journal
The Boston Business Journal is a weekly, business-oriented newspaper published in Boston, Massachusetts.

FTO gene
Fat mass and obesity-associated protein also known as alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase FTO is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FTO gene located on chromosome 16. IRX3 and FTO gene are genes on human chromosome 16.
Gene
In biology, the word gene has two meanings.
See IRX3 and Gene
Iroquois
The Iroquois, also known as the Five Nations, and later as the Six Nations from 1722 onwards; alternatively referred to by the endonym Haudenosaunee are an Iroquoian-speaking confederacy of Native Americans and First Nations peoples in northeast North America.
Iroquois homeobox factor
Iroquois homeobox factors are a family of homeodomain transcription factors that play a role in many developmental processes.
See IRX3 and Iroquois homeobox factor
Linkage disequilibrium
In population genetics, linkage disequilibrium (LD) is a measure of non-random association between segments of DNA (alleles) at different positions on the chromosome (loci) in a given population based on a comparison between the frequency at which two alleles are detected together at the same loci and the frequencies at which each allele is detected at that loci overall, whether it occurs with or without the other allele of interest.
See IRX3 and Linkage disequilibrium
Morphogen
A morphogen is a substance whose non-uniform distribution governs the pattern of tissue development in the process of morphogenesis or pattern formation, one of the core processes of developmental biology, establishing positions of the various specialized cell types within a tissue.
NKX2-2
Homeobox protein Nkx-2.2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NKX2-2 gene.
See IRX3 and NKX2-2
Protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues.
See IRX3 and Protein
Single-nucleotide polymorphism
In genetics and bioinformatics, a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; plural SNPs) is a germline substitution of a single nucleotide at a specific position in the genome.
See IRX3 and Single-nucleotide polymorphism
Sonic hedgehog protein
Sonic hedgehog protein (SHH) is encoded for by the SHH gene.

The New England Journal of Medicine
The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) is a weekly medical journal published by the Massachusetts Medical Society.
