    Gene Interaction
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking references and links related to gene interaction, specifically gene-gene and protein-protein interactions. One participant clarifies the distinction between these types of interactions, noting that gene-gene interactions delve into genetic relationships, while protein-protein interactions focus on the functional relationships between proteins. The original poster expresses a need for information about genes responsible for various bodily functions, particularly in relation to learning processes and how these functions are encoded in genes. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding different levels of cellular function when exploring gene interactions.

What kind of interaction are you looking for?

Gene-gene interaction (http://www.cdc.gov/genomics/info/reports/research/gene_gene.htm )
gene-protein interaction

or do you mean protein-protein interaction

I presume gene-gene interaction is like probing furthur compared to protein-protein interaction...am I right?

Why do you need the information? If you aren't sure which you're looking for, how do you know you need it? :confused: One isn't probing further than the other, it's looking at different levels of cellular function.
 
well let me tell it succintly...i need information about the genes that are responsible for different functions in the body and the different activities we do.For example during learning process,and how that information is encoded in gene.

I've been reading a bunch of articles in this month's Scientific American on Alzheimer's and ran across this article in a web feed that I subscribe to. The SA articles that I've read so far have touched on issues with the blood-brain barrier but this appears to be a novel approach to the problem - fix the exit ramp and the brain clears out the plaques. https://www.sciencealert.com/new-alzheimers-treatment-clears-plaques-from-brains-of-mice-within-hours The original paper: Rapid amyloid-β...
