1. Exogenous Causes. Dry Skin is the most common and obvious cause of itchy soles of the feet. The most likely cause is a lack of moisture in the skin. This affects the elderly more than the younger members of the population and it is found more frequently during the colder winter months.
In molecular genetics, an open reading frame (ORF) is the part of a reading frame that has the potential to code for a protein or peptide. An ORF is a continuous stretch of codons beginning with a start codon (usually AUG) and ending with a stop codon (usually UAA, UAG or UGA). An AUG codon within the ORF (not necessarily the first) may indicate where translation starts.
The official name of this gene is âbrain-derived neurotrophic factor.â. BDNF is the gene's official symbol. The BDNF gene is also known by other names, listed below. Read more about gene names and symbols on the About page.he BDNF gene belongs to a family of genes called endogenous ligands (endogenous ligands). A gene family is a group of genes that share important characteristics. Classifying individual genes into families helps researchers describe how genes are related to each other.
