Conserved gene order can be termed as __________(a) Ortholog(b) Synteny(c) Paralog(d) MicroarrayThe question was posed to me in final exam.Enquiry is from From Genomes to Proteasomes topic in section DNA-Based Information Technologies of Biochemistry

Answer»

Right answer is (b) Synteny

The best I can explain: GENES of DIFFERENT species but possessing a clear sequence and functional relationship to each other are orthologs.

Genes of same species, similarly related to each other are paralogs.

Collections of microscopic DNA spots attached to SOLID surface are DNA MICROARRAYS.
