Interface - The agreed upon way that a function is called. Example: The toaster, microwave oven, and blender in my home all have the same US 120 volt 60 Hertz interface. I can use any plug on the counter for any of them. Facade Pattern / Bridge Pattern - A go-between between 2 interfaces.
Germline Gene Transfer. Gene transfer represents a relatively new possibility for the treatment of rare genetic disorders and common multifactorial diseases by changing the expression of a person's genes. Typically gene transfer involves using a vector such as a virus to deliver a therapeutic gene to the appropriate target cells.
Gene duplication (or chromosomal duplication or gene amplification) is a major mechanism through which new genetic material is generated during molecular evolution. It can be defined as any duplication of a region of DNA that contains a gene.Gene duplications can arise as products of several types of errors in DNA replication and repair machinery as well as through fortuitous capture by selfish genetic elements.xperiments on human gene function can often be carried out on other species if a homolog to a human gene can be found in the genome of that species, but only if the homolog is orthologous. If they are paralogs and resulted from a gene duplication event, their functions are likely to be too different.
