About 30 thousand genes have been discovered so far. Below is the functions of those genes that have been determined so far.
Production of Genes and Protein 22%
Metabolism 17%
Signals Between Cells 12%
Immunity, Homeostasis 12%
Materials for Creating and Functioning Cells 8%
Cell Division and DNA Synthesis 4%
Other 25%Production of Genes ande Protein ... Genes that control transcription from genes that determine the sequence of the amino acids that from proteins, orders which gene should be transcripted, controls translation from messenger RNA.
Metabolism ... Genes that decompose food to gain energy, and material to create enzymes.
Signals Between Cells ... Genes that control hormones that travels to and from cells.
Immunity, Homeostasis ... Genes that maintain proteins for immunity and homeostasis (a system in the body that controls body temperature, swear, blood to preserve organisms)
Materials for Creatinf and Functioning Cells ... These genes include genes that cause diseases.
