Fig. 2From: On how to generalize species-specific conceptual schemes to generate a species-independent Conceptual Schema of the GenomeTranscription view. The initial CS is depicted in white boxes and the additions are shaded in gray. Seven classes were added: the intron, as a chromosome element that can be transcriptable or regulatory; the domain, representing the independent building blocks that compose proteins; the ortholog group, to link genes that have evolved from a single gene; and the mRNA and its structural parts: the 5’ UTR, CDS, and the 3’ UTR. Please note that the ChromosomeElement class pertains to the structural view, but we have included it to provide additional contextBack to article page
