Studies on transgenic mice reveal that calreticulin is cardiac embryonic gene that is essential during development.

Genetics deals with the molecular structure and function of genes, gene behavior in context of a cell or organism ( e. g. dominance and epigenetics ), patterns of inheritance from parent to offspring, and gene distribution, variation and change in populations, such as through Genome-Wide Association Studies.

Studies over several years covering the key mineral area of the Central Pacific resulted in a technical study on biodiversity, species ranges and gene flow in the abyssal Pacific nodule province, with emphasis on predicting and managing the impacts of deep seabed mining A workshop at Manoa, Hawaii, in October 2007 produced a rationale and recommendations for the establishment of " preservation reference areas " in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone, where nodule mining would be prohibited in order to leave the natural environment intact.

Studies have linked the occurrence of lactase persistence to two different single-nucleotide polymorphisms about 14 and 22 kilobases upstream of the 5 ’- end of the LPH gene.

Studies in the fly Drosophila melanogaster suggest that if a mutation changes a protein produced by a gene, this will probably be harmful, with about 70 percent of these mutations having damaging effects, and the remainder being either neutral or weakly beneficial.

Studies have demonstrated that new gene mutations for achondroplasia are exclusively inherited from the father and occur during spermatogenesis ; it is theorized that oogenesis has some regulatory mechanism that hinders the mutation from originally occurring in females ( although females are still readily able to inherit and pass on the mutant allele ).

Studies in chicks have shown that Shh is both necessary and sufficient for thalamic gene induction.

Studies have found that in normal tissue, methylation of a gene is mainly localized to the coding region, which is CpG-poor.

Studies have also suggested that there is no Semitic female contribution to the Lemba gene pool.

A study published in 2010 and conducted by Boian S. Alexandrov and colleagues at the Center for Nonlinear Studies at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico created mathematical models predicting how terahertz radiation would interact with double-stranded DNA, showing that, even though involved forces seem to be tiny, nonlinear resonances ( although much less likely to form than less-powerful common resonances ) could allow terahertz waves to " unzip double-stranded DNA, creating bubbles in the double strand that could significantly interfere with processes such as gene expression and DNA replication ".

Studies in mice also suggest a role of the expressed Aspm gene product in mitotic spindle regulation.

Studies of this process have indicated gibberellins cause higher levels of transcription of the gene coding for the α-amylase enzyme, to stimulate the synthesis of α-amylase.
