Recombination signal binding protein for immunoglobulin kappa J region is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the ''RBPJ''
gene
In biology, the word gene (from , ; "...Wilhelm Johannsen coined the word gene to describe the Mendelian units of heredity..." meaning ''generation'' or ''birth'' or ''gender'') can have several different meanings. The Mendelian gene is a ba ...
