A gene size is indicated by base pair (bp) of nucleotides. A base pair (1 bp) provides 2 bits of information.

SEARCH DATABASES

There are 3 databases where geneticists, scientists and specialists can consult all information about mutations, transcripts and gene locations. These are publicly accessible. These databases always search for the gene name.

OMIM = a database describing all human disease-causing mutations

ENSEMBL = a database with all gene and protein information

LOVD = Global Leiden Open Variation Database.
