Alternate forms of a gene are called alleles. Alleles are one of  two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and  are found at the same place on a chromoâ¦some.
An oncogene is a gene that has the potential to cause cancer cancer. Oncogenes were first described as retrovirus-encoded genes that produced tumors in birds and rodents. These genes were then shown to be dominant mutated forms of host genes. (proto-oncogenes) that had been picked up by the retroviruses. Generally they are in the form of a proto-oncogene in the normal cell. Most oncogenes require an additional step, such as mutations in another gene, or environmental factors like non-ionizing or ionizing radiation, or more likely a viral infection, to cause cancer. Many cancer drugs target the proteins encoded by oncogenes.
