Understanding the central dogma of Biology, DNA (genes) begets mRNA begets proteins will help to understand this questions. Currently it is thought, although there has been recent discoveries of nucleic acid miRNA, that the protein product of a gene will regulated the production of other proteins and itself. This sort of regulation primarily acts as a negative feedback loop. For example if more of gene A that gets made into protein, then either the protein itself or other messengers will slow down that gene A's output.

Polygenic Inheritence

this may or may not be true but, when one gene alters the effect of another gene's Expression it is called Epistasis according to Campbell & Reese's Biology which we use in Bio 110.

What controls gene expression?

•A gene is a segment of DNA which codes for a specific protein. Through transcription and translation, a protein is produced and then is used for cell processes.


When a gene inherited from one parent masks the expression of the gene inherited from the other parent that gene is said to be?

A gene whose phenotypic expression is masked by the presence of another is generally called the recessive gene. However, it can still be passed onto offspring.


What is gene expression-?

Gene expression is the process by which the information encoded in a gene is used to direct the assembly of a protein molecule. The cell reads the sequence of the gene in groups of three bases. Each group of three bases (codon) corresponds to one of 20 different amino acids used to build the protein.

It was once believed that one gene controls one trait, so it is possible. Currently, the belief is that one gene can interact with other genes to control a trait, and that one gene can control more than one trait.
