<h2>Alignment</h2>
<p>Arranging the sequences of DNA, RNA, or protein to identify similarities</p>
<h2>Inflammation</h2>
<p>Inflammation is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.</p>
<p> </p>
<h1>M</h1>
<h2>MetagenomeMetagenomics</h2>
<p>The study of genetic material recovered directly from environmental samples.</p>
<h2>Modifier genes</h2>
<h2>Mutation</h2>
<p>The permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA or other genetic elements.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Neurodegenerative</h2>
<p> The progressive loss of structure or function of neurons, including death of neurons.</p>
<h1>O</h1>
<h2>Open flamereading frame</h2> <p>The part of a reading frame that has the potential to be translated.</p> <p>An ORF is a continuous stretch of codons that contain a start codon(usually AUG) and a stop codon(usually UAA, UAG or UGA).</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>OrthologyOrthologous</h2>
<p>Homologous sequences are orthologous if they are inferred to be descended from the same ancestral sequence separated by a speciation event: when a species diverges into two separate species, the copies of a single gene in the two resulting species are said to be orthologous.</p>
<p> </p>
<h1>P</h1>
<h2>ParalogyParalogous</h2>
<p>Homologous sequences are paralogous if they were created by a duplication event within the genome. For gene duplication events, if a gene in an organism is duplicated to occupy two different positions in the same genome, then the two copies are paralogous.</p>
<h2>Personalized medicine</h2>
<p>Personalized medicine also termed precision medicine, is a medical procedure that separates patients into different groups—with medical decisions, practices, interventions and/or products being tailored to the individual patient based on their predicted response or risk of disease</p>
<h2>Phylogenetic tree</h2>
<p>A phylogenetic tree or evolutionary tree is a branching diagram or "tree" showing the inferred evolutionary relationships among various biological species or other entities—their phylogeny—based upon similarities and differences in their physical or genetic characteristics.</p>
